[SOLVED] Debian and local mirrors

[LkS45]

Hey!

In proxmox v.8 the debian has local mirros like as "ftp.br.debian.org". Well in the v9 the new version of repositories has only "deb.debian.org", so, has no more local mirror for each country?

Thanks.

Hi.
They are. According to https://www.debian.org/mirror/list
there is http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/ and seems it properly contains Debian 13 packages:
http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/dists/Debian13.1/

This is already a CDN version of the local mirrors, but in one name. Therefore you don't need to explicitly set a local mirror, you can however, do this manually. I recommend to check what the fastest mirror for actually is with the package netselect-apt.

The trouble with this is, that tommorow another mirror might be faster. Imho right now there is no benefit in not using the default except you happen to be in a network (e.G. your university/company/ISP) who has it's own mirror.
