| m10k | So I'm considering setting up a package mirror, but I'm unsure about the disk requirements. Can somebody provide any insights? | 15:15 |
|---|---|---|
| m10k | The walkthrough document I've found makes it seem like the size might be anywhere between 8G and 2T.. | 15:16 |
| Evilham | m10k: do you have a debian mirror already? | 15:27 |
| xinomilo | devuan packages is ~26G | 15:30 |
| xinomilo | atm | 15:30 |
| m10k | Nope, I don't have a debian mirror. I'm guessing that means I'll need 26G + the size of the debian mirror? | 15:34 |
| xinomilo | not if you don't want to. check this : https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan_mirror_walkthrough.txt | 15:41 |
| xinomilo | you use rewrite rules for debian pool | 15:42 |
| Evilham | Indeed | 15:42 |
| m10k | Ah thanks, I didn't read the document that far.. | 15:48 |
| m10k | Great, in that case I'll be setting up a mirror | 15:48 |
| onefang | https://friendsofdevuan.org/doku.php/user:onefang:mirrors might be useful to you as well, though it's a little out of date. | 16:01 |
| m10k | onefang: Thanks, very interesting read! I expected much more traffic on the package mirror, though. Has it increased since the article was written? | 16:40 |
| onefang | I should pull my finger out and add more traffic graphs. I can't tell you off the top of my head how much things might have changed. | 16:42 |
| onefang | Also I recall there was a minor config change needed long after I wrote that. | 16:50 |
| m10k | For what it's worth, I guess that means the traffic probably hasn't increased dramatically / sustainably | 16:57 |
| m10k | Anyways, I'm still looking for a good provider to host the mirror, so I suppose I'll come back as soon as I've got at least ssh and iptables configured | 17:03 |
| m10k | It's getting late over here, so thanks and goodnight everyone | 17:15 |
