Bug#821060: httpredir: please redirect to CloudFront when in the Amazon cloud.
Package: mirrors
Severity: withlist
User: mirrors@packages.debian.org
Usertags: httpredir
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-cloud@lists.debian.org
Hi Raphael, DSA, Cloud people and everybody,
It would be great if httpredir.debian.org could redirect to http://cloudfront.debian.org
when the machine is within the Amazon cloud.
This has been discussed in the past (https://lists.debian.org/debian-cloud/2013/05/msg00066.html),
but currently it does not work (https://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2016/04/msg00034.html).
However, Debian's AWS images are currently using httpredir.debian.org (except for the jessie-backports
repository, which goes directly to cloudfront.debian.org).
Have a nice day,
