Public bug reported: 1) Ubuntu 11.10 2) Debmirror 1:2.9ubuntu1 3-4) I use debmirror in my update script, but after dist upgrade (11.04 -> 11.10) debmirror ignores method option and always trying to use rsync. Thats how i launch debmirror:
debmirror --verbose --host=archive.ubuntu.com --root=ubuntu --method=ftp --dist=oneiric --section=main --arch=i386 $repository_working_dir I tried http method and other reps mirror, debmirror forced rsync method too. My server has acces only to http and ftp, so debmirror just stops, thats what i see after launching: Mirroring to /home/repositories/Ubuntu.11.10.repository from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ Arches: i386 Dists: oneiric Sections: main Including source. Pdiff mode: use Will clean up after mirroring. Attempting to get lock ... Updating remote trace files (using rsync) ... If i put debmirror binary file from Ubuntu 11.04 in /usr/bin it works well. So, looks like a bug in new Ubuntu 11.10 package. ** 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/882941 Title: Debmirror ignores '--method' option (always uses rsync) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debmirror/+bug/882941/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
