This bug was in the Feisty to Gutsy upgrade, and still exists in Gutsy to Hardy.
Instead of taking 20 minutes to upgrade from the local mirror over the LAN, it is taking 4 to 6 hours downloading from the archive pool. I have a complete mirror of the entire Ubuntu distribution on my LAN, but the program disables the local repository and downloads from archive.ubuntu.com instead. This doesn't just affect my company's computers, either. I've included the IYCC mirror in the sources.list in all the computers I've sold, in order to reduce the demand on the rest of the Ubuntu repository pool, and so that my customers can take advantage of the much faster speeds available from my server. -- do-release-upgrade should make disabling third party repositories optional https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147080 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
