Also note that using either or both of the following lines in ~/.debmirror.conf
 @di-dist="dists";
 @di-arch="arches";
result in an error like:
 Can't modify subtraction (-) in scalar assignment at 
/home/owen/.debmirror.conf line 38, near ""dists";"
 Compilation failed in require at /usr/bin/debmirror line 547.
