Jigdo makes sense for making iso images from a mirror. It makes no sense as a tool for doing a mirror. There are mirror scripts that use rsync that work quite well. I haven't seen zsync before although the description makes it sound like it is meant for large iso images rather than mirroring an archive. To do mirroring properly there is a page with a link to ftpsync scripts that do it right using rsync. Not sure if it has ports support. I can't remember. There is also debmirror. https://www.debian.org/mirror/ftpmirror -- Len Sorensen
