I just used Jigdo-lite to update my weekly build from Feb 5 to Feb 12.

It was flawless for all the DVD images from my local US debian mirror!!!  Of 
course, doing an update for a single week only required that I actually 
download a very small subset of files (something around a few hundred or 
so).

When I was using jigdo to get the Feb 5th build, I was getting ABSOLUTELY 
EVERYTHING, since I had no previous image.  This of course required that 
every single file in all 3 DVD was located on a debian mirror server.

For the Feb 5th get-everything event, jidgo got about 90% of the files, then 
it would stop with some error.  If I retried it (even several times), it 
didn't find the files and the alternate mirror servers it tried.  I started 
guessing various mirrors, and I was able to eventually find (through sheer 
luck) the needed files for DVD 1 and 2 on some mirrors in France and 
Germany.  For DVD 3, I just couldn't find a few files (about 10) on the 
mirror servers, and eventually picked them up from snapshot.

If I run into missing files again using jigdo-lite, I'll be sure to let you 
know which files are missing.  Of course with the weekly builds, new files 
may take a while to propagate to the mirrors so I'll be sure to give it 
"some time".

Doug.
