Tracking this in the BTS. o Please use our ftpsync script to mirror Debian. Using ftpsync ensures updates are done in the correct order so apt clients don't get confused. It also should produce correct trace files that contain more information that is useful for us. https://mirror.dataone.nl/debian/project/ftpsync/ftpsync-current.tar.gz [This script should also work for mirroring Ubuntu.] o The mirror does not delete old files.

Can we convince you to run our ftpsync script? Yes, it's a complicated beast, but multi-stage rsyncs are required to avoid (or minimize) clients getting errors if they fetch metainformation (such as package lists) while the mirror upgrades. You can find a copy at http://mirror.dataone.nl/debian/project/ftpsync/ or if you prefer git https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/mirror/archvsync.git/ as the links to clone from.
