The example config file applies a package filter to not mirror every package of debian. change pkgfilter to return 0 at the top to not filter out any packages. > On another call to debmirror (target directory containing my old > powerpcspe archive) i got some more error messages complaining about > running out of open files; maybe it's a memory issue?

Maybe we should move this discussion over to the debparanoia-discuss at sourceforge? Creation of the list was just queued, it will take 6-24 hours until it is available (and until this link starts to work): https://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/debparanoia-discuss I might be able to help you if I can see a full log of your debparanoia invokation (i.e.: debparanoia ... 2>&1 | tee logfile ) Please post the log (gzipped) to the list and/or file it with the sourceforge bug tracker: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=555611&atid=2254499 Never saw this problem with debparanoia on Ubuntu 10.04 nor 10.10. Also note how the SF page says debparanoia "alpha" :) cheers, David -- GnuPG public key: http://dvdkhlng.users.sourceforge.net/dk.gpg Fingerprint: B17A DC95 D293 657B 4205 D016 7DEF 5323 C174 7D40
