These are caused by ls-lR vs. ls-lR.gz. I am going to fix that in a NMU.

 , but I see other strange
 lines where architecture or ls-lR seems do be added to host name,
 which results in error Couldn't resolve host :
 
 SERVER: ftp.proxad.net
 Benchmarking FTP...
 Error: RETR response: 550
 Benchmarking HTTP...
 Error: Couldn't resolve host 'ftp.proxad.netalphals-lR'

This one is a consequence of the format of the mirror file :

ftp.iut-bm.univ-fcomte.fr /debian/
/debian/   all
 `- works fine.

ftp.proxad.net/mirrors/ftp.debian.org/  
 all
 `- misses a column for HTTP and therefore fails.

This file is got from
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/README.mirrors.txt.

I see here a bug in apt-spy not parsing correctly the file.

This happens after apt-spy update too.
