which Debian host for xprint packaging?
I've started downloaded the CVS source for Xprint from xprint.mozdev.org. mozdev.org seems to be a little slow, especially in business hours - after 16 hours, cvs co xprint only downloaded 32 MB! ( I gather I should add the -z1 compression flag, which I have now done, the full line being cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs -z1 co xprint ). This effectively means I can't download it directly onto my own computer (a laptop), since I need to eat and do other things during the day than wait for xprint CVS to download. I therefore want to use a Debian machine to checkout the source as a background task. At the moment I'm using people.debian.org (i.e. klecker.debian.org), but my question is whether this is as good as any other Debian machine for this kind of task? Actually, I just realised klecker runs potato, so for compiling and packaging I'll need to logon to a sid machine anyway. Which Debian machine (running unstable) would be more appropriate to use for downloading and manipulating Xprint (X11) source code? Connecting from Australia, if geography makes a difference.
