Now available: Mirror of the official Debian repository

I’m excited to announce that Libranext is now providing a mirror of the Debian package archive for the amd64 architecture!

You can use the mirror from this URL:

debpkg.libranext.com/debian

A sample /etc/apt/sources.list to use the mirror on a Debian 12 system:

# Debian mirror provided by Libranext Computer Systems
deb https://debpkg.libranext.com/debian/ bookworm main contrib non-free-firmware

# Always include the Debian security repository
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security bookworm-security main contrib non-free-firmware

# Updates repository to get updates prior to point releases
deb https://debpkg.libranext.com/debian/ bookworm-updates main contrib non-free-firmware

I plan to submit the mirror for consideration to list on the official Debian mirrors list soon (soon as I get 4x sync set up).

Just to be clear: This mirror is for Debian Linux distributions, not Libranext Linux/Libranext Software Distribution. I’m doing this as a courtesy/contribution as even Libranext Computer Systems depends heavily on Debian powered systems on our servers. It’s the least I can do anyways, and it makes updating my many Debian-powered systems a LOT faster as it’s local to me.
