For now a very long time (I'd say at least 6 months, maybe even more)
puccini is delaying mails for days, and then suddenly releases them. The
issue is, puccini is responsible for testing transision mails and
[EMAIL PROTECTED] adresses that are often used and very handy.
Has anyone any clues

Hi!
Would it be feasible to add something like a package cache to Debian?
This way only a minimal Debian system would be installed locally on
the hard disk. All other packages are fetched only when used. For example,
