Hello Debianeros, So, deb.debian.org has a dists directory, dists has a directory for each version of debian, and pseudo-versions like bookworm and bookworm-updates, inside if which are sections like main, contrib and non-free.
Like this: $ tree -L 2 -n dist/ dist/ ├── bookworm │ ├── contrib │ ├── main │ └── non-free ├── bookworm-updates │ ├── contrib │ ├── main │ └── non-free ├── bullseye │ ├── contrib │ ├── main │ └── non-free ├── bullseye-updates │ ├── contrib │ ├── main │ └── non-free ├── stretch │ ├── contrib │ ├── main │ └── non-free ├── stretch-updates │ ├── contrib │ ├── main │ └── non-free ├── trixie │ ├── contrib │ ├── main │ └── non-free └── trixie-updates ├── contrib ├── main └── non-free security.debian.org, on the other hand, also has a dists directory, which also has a directory for each version of debian, all -security suffixed (bookworm-security, there's no bookworm directory), but the sections include main, contrib, non-free, and a special "updates" section, like this: $ tree -L 2 -n dist/ dist/ ├── bookworm-security │ ├── contrib │ ├── main │ ├── non-free │ └── updates ├── bullseye-security │ ├── contrib │ ├── main │ ├── non-free │ └── updates ├── stretch-security │ ├── contrib │ ├── main │ ├── non-free │ └── updates └── trixie-security ├── contrib ├── main ├── non-free └── updates the updates dir seems to be a link to itself: you can dive as deep as you want into the updates directory, you'd still be in an updates/updates/ subdir. How is the security repo layed out? What is that updates directory for? Best, -- yassine -- sysadm http://about.me/ychaouche Looking for side gigs.
