Because the packages that used to go in dists/$(dist)/binary-$(arch) are now all jumbled together in the pool. You can't just exclude by architecture any more, or indeed by distribution; you've got to parse Packages files in order to know what you need to mirror, or else you'll either get far too much or far too little. >-> >(58GB here - seems too much) >-> >-> Sounds like you're mirroring the whole archive. > >yes, but it was ~30GB just some weeks (months) ago... Maybe the release of 2.2r3 changed something. Depends what you're trying to mirror. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
