Re: [cdn.d.n] Problems while building ISO with live-build



Hi Sedat,  debian-live and debian-mirrors,

Thank you for your report.

When you require idempotent for debian mirrors such as CD building, I
recommend to set 'stable' and set to use your trusted mirror by IP
address.
Or, please retry after ten minutes.

I guess the reason and factor as followings,
- 'sid' mirror runs very frequently.
- cdn.debian.net returns some of IP address for one country. (For DE,
5 or more IP addresses are reply.)

In such case, consistency of 'deb' files are not guaranteed.


However, I had tried to solve consistency by following two test in
cdn.debian.or.jp.

1) by synchronizing most slowest mirror servers.

In this time, I received some complaints from Japanese debian users.
They want to use most up-to-date deb files.


2) by exclusion delay mirror servers. In other words, I configure to
send only mirrors which synchronized
http://cdn.debian.net/debian/project/trace/syncproxy.wna.debian.org.

It works well. However, during 'rsync' processing, apt-get access from
users are concentrated.


If you have idea, suggestion, contribution and/or request? Please send me.

Regards,

ARAKI
