Hi Heather,

thanks for these verifications!

I just wanted to clarify some points.

Jammy verification:

> Failed to open Release file from 
> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/eoan-updates/Release at 
> /usr/bin/apt-mirror line 653.

I don't think this is expected to work today, since eoan is EOL and
doesn't exist at that URL anymore. I would have changed the ubuntu
release to mirror to something that is still available, like jammy
itself.

So this conclusion:
> ** Running apt-mirror never successfully finishes and errors out **

Is not because of the bug that is being fixed, is just because that
distro is not available anymore.


Later on, when verifying the proposed package:
> # show mirror.list
> vim /etc/apt/mirror.list

You edit the mirror list, but don't show what you edited it to.

Of interest to this bug, we can see that now it downloads cnf files, so that's 
good:
> Downloading 24 cnf files using 20 threads...

The last step of the test plan, however:
> apt-get update
> also returns no errors

Here I would like some clarification. The intention is to show that the
mirror that was just created is working, and to do that we want to run
"apt-get update" *against* *it*. I can't infer that from this
verification: it could be that you just ran apt-get update with
sources.list pointing at the ubuntu archive, and not the mirror you just
created.

From the test plan, we can see that apt-get update is meant to run
against the newly created mirror:
