< Sebboh> Debian runs a bittorrent tracker, presumably primarily for
installer CD torrents. The debian-installer team provides .torrent
downloads for the daily-built CD images.. These .torrents
are set up to use bttracker.debian.org ... But the
tracker running there REJECTS the daily CD image torrents. See? The
left hand doesn't know what the right is doing. < Sebboh> I don't know
the right place to report this. If you know how to report this
bug/misconfiguration, please copy/paste my report and send it along.
Otherwise, nothing.. Have a good day!
This, or #debian-cd is the correct place. And the daily built torrents are
more of an artifact of the build process than anything useful, keeping up
with daily builds for seeding will likely not be successful.
And if the images won't have reliable seeds, there is no point in
authorizing them in the tracker either, to give a sooner and clearer error
message.
