${DEBIAN_MIRROR} is not a mirror for alioth, it's a mirror for debian
packages repository and their original tarballs. The place where
apt-get looks for .deb packages in Debian. So it's unlikely to go
offline.
As chrpath is a debian project, we should prefer taking it from Debian
rather than other sources. That way it is more likely that it will be
kept up to date.
