In particular, for example, I stopped my initial debian-security (off of aarnet mirror) debmirror run, after about 20 package downloads, since I realised it said ~9GiB to download. Just now I checked one package, with results as follows: Just downloaded: nice /usr/bin/debmirror --diff=mirror --md5sums --rsync-extra=trace,doc,tools --exclude='/Translation-.*\.bz2$' --include='/Translation-(en).*\.bz2$' --include='/Translation-en.*\.bz2$' --verbose --progress --arch=amd64,i386,armhf --section=main,contrib,non-free --dist=wheezy/updates,jessie/updates --host=mirror.aarnet.edu.au --method=ftp --root=pub/debian-security /public/debian/debian-security ... Files to download: 9793 MiB [ 0%] Getting: pool/updates/main/a/a2ps/a2ps_4.14-1.1+deb7u1.diff.gz # ... [ 0%] Getting: pool/updates/main/a/asterisk/asterisk-config_1.8.13.1~dfsg1-3+deb7u3_all.deb ########## ... And when I check my main repos package pool: $ find /public/debian/debian/|grep asterisk-config /public/debian/debian/pool/main/a/asterisk/asterisk-config_11.8.1~dfsg-1_all.deb /public/debian/debian/pool/main/a/asterisk/asterisk-config_1.8.13.1~dfsg1-3+deb7u3_all.deb /public/debian/debian/pool/main/a/asterisk/asterisk-config_11.8.1~dfsg-1~bpo70+1_all.deb and we see, the second result of my grep is the same package that was just downloaded for debian-security. Such inefficiency shall NOT be tolerated! :) I guess another way to answer my question is: what is the time lapse for packages to "migrate" from debian security repo, to regular debian repos? If automatically part of the next 24-hour (or less) 'catch up' then there is no point my creating a local security repo.
