Mirroring Maemo Repositories

This is a mini-HOWTO explaining how to mirror the Maemo repositories.

Install apt-mirror

In Debian/Ubuntu/etc:

apt-get update
apt-get install apt-mirror

In Fedora/RPM-based systems:

yum install apt-mirror

Configure apt-mirror

Edit the mirror list.

In Debian:

/etc/apt/mirror.list

In Fedora:

/etc/apt-mirror.list

The file should look like this--update the mirror_path to where you would like them to point:

set defaultarch    armel
set nthreads     20
set _tilde 0
set mirror_path    /var/www/mirrors
deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras/ fremantle free
deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras-testing/ fremantle free
deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/ fremantle free

Run apt-mirror

Then simply run apt-mirror:

apt-mirror
