Bug#2391: mirror -- minor config problems
Package: mirror
Status: install ok installed
Section: net
Maintainer: Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd@qed.econ.queensu.ca>
Version: 2.8-2
A couple points about mirror:
1) Why is "mirror.defaults" in its own subdirectory ("mirror") under /etc?
2) The man page does not properly describe the location of "mirror.defaults".
[...]
(or standard input). If a file named mirror.defaults can
be found in either the directory the mirror executable is
in or in the PERLLIB path, then it is loaded first. This
is used to provide common defaults for all config-files.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they're not.
