`apt search 'https://github.com/yaml/pyyaml'` finds it.
However, in such cases, to make sure I don't package something that is
already in Debian, I also use the `apt-file` tool: I pick a file that
the software installs and then I do e.g.
apt-file search dist-packages/yaml/resolver.

Now, when a new version of libddnssec bumps the SONAME to 10, you can
safely package that as libdnssec10 - it will be built with 64-bit time_t
from the start, and there will be no chance that any already-built
program would try to link to anything called "libdnssec10" by mistake.

An automatic mirror cannot do that.

first marked that remote repo for mirroring", no, I don't think there is
