Bug#789247: di-netboot-assistant: consider using httpredir service
Package: di-netboot-assistant
Version: 0.38a+nmu1
Severity: wishlist
Now that the httpredir service exists,
http://httpredir.debian.org/
it might be nice to have d-n-a's di-sources.list point at that by default.
I tried changing
http://ftp.debian.org/
to
http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/
and it worked fine for me. I also asked Raphael Geissert if this would be
an appropriate use and he said,
"Yes, all mirrors are expected to have the installer dirs for a given
arch whenever they claim they mirror that architecture.
If you ever encounter any such mirror it should be considered a bug
and a reason enough to take them off the pool until they fix it."
Thanks,
