Debian archive



Hi,

I installed Hurd from J2-CD #1.
I got WindowMaker running.
Great!

It is time to work now...

The most broken thing I met was the archive.
Example:
I can not install dpkg-dev.
It depends on perl-module which itself depends on perl.
But I have perl 5.6 and perl-module 5.8.

Why is the Hurd Debian archive dual?
alpha.gnu.org and ftp.debian.org.
Even on the CD, I got a local/ directory.

Why double archives?

Thanks.
