I use the "mirror" perl script to maintain a local mirror of i386
potato and woody. So that I do not download files for all of the
architectures I am not interested in, my mirror configuration file for
the Debian archives has lines like
exclude_patt+|binary-sparc|disks-sparc
in it. In the future (if I understand things correctly) there will no
longer be binary-$arch directories; all of the binaries will be in
the same directories. So that I don't download the .deb files for the
architectures I do not want I will have to add some lines like
exclude_patt+|sparc.deb|sparc.changes
