Public bug reported: The script has a hardcoded assumption that i18n files are bzip2 packed:
2476 next if $filename !~ /bz2$/; But archive.ubuntu.com only ships .gz and .xz these days: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/i18n/ Should be a trivial fix. This report should also go upstream, but I'm submitting it here first because upstream isn't affected for now, ftp.debian.org still ships .bz2 translations. I would ask that you coordinate with upstream. This occurs with debmirror 1:2.25ubuntu1 on Xenial. ** Affects: debmirror (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1565751 Title: Fails to download i18n (Translation-en) files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debmirror/+bug/1565751/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
