FWIW, there's a couple of things our scripts complain about still: o The tracefile at http://debian.netcologne.de/debian/project/trace/debian.netcologne.de is missing some required information. We expect at least the Maintainer and Upstream-mirror values to be filled in, and your tracefile is missing one or both of them. o The tracefile http://debian.netcologne.de/debian/project/trace/debian.netcologne.de suggests that the ftpsync version you are using is very old. Please upgrade. Using a modern ftpsync ensures updates are done in the correct order so apt clients don't get confused. In particular, it processes translations, contents, and more files that have been added to the archive in recent years in the correct stage. It also should produce trace files that contain more information that is useful for us and helps downstream mirrors sync better. http://debian.netcologne.de/debian/project/ftpsync/ftpsync-current.tar.gz Cheers, Julien
