apt-mirror can easily run for a considerable length of time during large updates. for those who use kerberized file services, such as AFS, ticket expiration can be a problem. This patch addresses the problem by adding some configuration variables, and re-writes the child process harvester from blocking wait() to a non-blocking waitpid(), allowing the master process to perform tasks while the...

OK. So I guess I'll need to temporarily remove 9.10 as well as 8.10, run the script and then clean. After the clean, which will have removed 8.10, I can re-add 9.10.
Sounds like it'll work, just seems kind of roundabout.

just certain packages really is out of scope for apt-mirror but you could use something like "falcon" repo manager for just certain pakages, but it would be all manual.

as soon as you remove the 8.10 from the mirror.list , the next run should add those files to the clean.sh script for when it is run to clean out the non mirrored files.

I've got an apt-mirror running that has mirrored Ubuntu 8.04, 8.10 and 9.04. I'd now like to remove 8.10 and basically replace it with 9.10 but it is not removing the 8.10 stuff.
Can anyone tell me how to achieve this? I don't have the drive space to keep all releases.

Apt-mirror is great!
We use it to provide a local upgrade source for our whole network.
We implemented apt-mirror back at 6.06LTS, and we've got repositories up to Intrepid. What we'd like to do is archive off 6.06LTS in a way that we could plug it back in at a later date if needed.
If theres no way to archive, we would like to delete it.
Is there any way to do this?
Also, is...

Problem solved. Apparently there is a line to use proxy server in /etc/apt/apt.conf.
Remove the line,
Acquire::http::Proxy "http://proxy.host:port/";.
