Normally you should be able to just use a regular Debian mirror, but
when you use ftp.debian-ports.org/debian, it's not recognized as
a mirror.

Helge Deller (CC'ed) had the same issue on alpha and hppa and to resolve
it, he created his own mirror using reprepro and made them available
here: http://backup.parisc-linux.org/ (alpha and hppa only).

Basically, creating a repo using reprepro and making it available
using apt-cacher-ng should work.

You can use the attached configuration for reprepro to create
a valid sparc64 repository. Maybe someone create such a repository
and make it available through the web via http. Just install reprepro,
create a new folder and extract the contents of conf.tgz into
it, then run "reprepro -V update" and wait.

For apt-cacher-ng, this might help:
