Public bug reported: If you use debmirror to mirror the focal repository, and use `--di-dist focal --di-arch=arches`, then the mirroring process fails, because it expects to fetch files from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/focal/main/installer- amd64/current/images/ but that does not exist. Instead there is http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/focal/main/installer- amd64/current/legacy-images/.

Also, it is quite annoying that you can't specify `--dist bionic,focal-updates,focal-security,focal-backports`. It will fail because these distributions don't exist yet. However, at some point they wull probably exist, but you won't mirror them. ** 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/1879348 Title: debmirror fails on focal because of legacy-images To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debmirror/+bug/1879348/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
