Hi, I noticed a couple of things about your Debian archive mirror: o there is no trace file with the mirror's name at http://mirrors.melbourne.co.uk/debian/trace/ You can set MIRRORNAME in ftpsync.conf to force the trace file's name. That should help make our monitoring at https://mirror-master.debian.org/status/mirror-info/mirrors.melbourne.co.uk.html happier o we recommend mirrors not sync directly from service aliases such as ftp.<CC>.debian.org (only http is guaranteed to be available at ftp.<CC>.d.o sites). Maybe change your config to sync from the site currently backing the ftp.<CC>.debian.org service you sync from? o The tracefile http://mirrors.melbourne.co.uk/debian/project/trace/woodbury suggests that the ftpsync version you are using is very old. Please upgrade. Using a modern ftpsync ensures updates are done in the correct order so apt clients don't get confused. In particular, it processes translations, contents, and more files that have been added to the archive in recent years in the correct stage. It also should produce trace files that contain more information that is useful for us and helps downstream mirrors sync better. http://mirrors.melbourne.co.uk/debian/project/ftpsync/ftpsync-current.tar.gz Thanks, Julien
