I hope this will come back to Ubuntu soon.

It would be even better if the netselect-apt package would be modified to use Ubuntu's list of mirrors instead of Debian's one. Then the netselect-apt package would be also useful in Ubuntu. -- please restore netselect package: it's _not_ debian-specific https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/337377 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hello, this tool can be used for many purposes other than "selecting the fastest Debian mirror". For example: Just now I had a big list of IPv6 tunnel brokers and wanted to find which one of them had the least latency for me. Please restore it and disable the "netselect-apt" part of it, which obviously isn't useful to Ubuntu by default without an Ubuntu mirror list. Lastly, you may take the following as a rant: Just because a mirror is in the same country, it doesn't necessarily mean it's the fastest or most frequently updated. Right now I'm using nl.archive.ubuntu.com even though I'm in Greece, as NTUA's mirror broke down once again a few days ago, and before that, Otenet (my ISP) stopped updating theirs a few months ago as well.

You are excluding a generic sysadmin tool from the distribution just because of a stupid misunderstanding. Could someone please fix this asap? Now I have to go fiddle with debian packages on our ubuntu installations just because someone had no clue what he was doing :-/ -- please restore netselect package: it's _not_ debian-specific https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/337377 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
