Package: security.debian.org
Severity: grave
Tags: upstream
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

someone needs to thoroughly check the updates servers.
For months now, any update process times out to oblivion. Im on 3MB/sec FIBER
line here. Im getting 43k/sec transfers.
often, slower than that.

And updates for jessie seems a tad DATED or MISSING. I know packages have
updated since Jessie's release.
STRETCH doesnt get security updates in a timely manner.I know debian policy is
just like RHEL: DRAGGG out
updates for stability reasons but theres work to be done.

Obviously, anyone can patch(and do your job for you) but mebbe the maintainer
of the software in question has
already fixed the issue. You wont know if you dont update your software.

someone needs to check whats going on.
I would ADVISE:

mirrors for security updates like official mirrors have. Force push RSYNC
updates.
You can do it with SIN and NetWare, THERE IS A WAY. IVE DONE IT.

There should be a way to trigger RSYNC once updates are released.
MORE MIRRORS mean better availability and uptime.
THIS KEEPS PEOPLE LIKE NASA SECURE.

As far as torrents:(which would be most ideal)
we need a way to version check the files(and isos). Master that and you have
the cheesecake.

And as a side note, LE certs are free and semi-automated now. Get on board. 5
mins to SSL.

Please be more specific here. If some fixes are missing in a given
source package report the bug please to that specifc source package.
Furthermore note, that stretch/testing has not direct security
support, cf. https://www.debian.org/security/faq#testing
