Meanwhile it would seem that bug #752384 is erroneous. It assumes SourceForge sync all files to all mirrors. They do not, Sf sync auto-selected content to mirrors and have awareness as to where the content is from their redirector. The problem is on the Debian end, you need to use the SourceForge mirror selector and not assume we, HEAnet, are a full reference source. Hope this helps, C. -- Senior System Administrator, MNS.
