some 2022 snapshots pointing to outdated Sources.xz?
Hi there!
Perhaps I have a major misunderstanding here, but while frequently
downloading packages based on "first seen" timestamp successfully, I
found two issues with seemingly outdated indices end of 2022:
ncurses 6.2+20201114-2+deb11u1:
https://snapshot.debian.org/package/ncurses/6.2%2B20201114-2%2Bdeb11u1/
claims the package was "first seen on 2023-02-24 09:03:43". And I can
also see it in
https://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20230224T090343Z/pool/main/n/ncurses/.
However,
https://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20230224T090343Z/dists/bullseye/main/source/
seems to point to Sources.xz from 2022-12-17 which doesn't include the
package I want.
nftables 0.9.8-3.1+deb11u1:
According to
https://snapshot.debian.org/package/nftables/0.9.8-3.1%2Bdeb11u1/, it is
available in 20221209T210537Z.
But
https://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20221209T210537Z/dists/bullseye/main/source/
references Sources.xz from 2022-09-10. I need to jump to
20221217T151645Z to get a recent Sources.xz.
Were there some issues with stuck snapshots back in 2022 or is it me
misunderstanding how this is supposed to work?
Thanks in advance!
