User4: anyone have any opinions on which the best local archive mirror to use is?
User1: best official or best unofficial?
 * olly is using http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
User4: User1 either? i know catalyst have/had an unofficial one
User2: but I'm down to one ubuntu box now with a fairly small number of packages, so I don't know if I'd really notice problems
 * mwhudson is finally setting up squid-deb-proxy
User4: i do a lot of stuff in containers these days
User1: we have an unofficial one
User1: and with a tweak to /usr/share/python-apt/templates/Ubuntu.mirrors ubuntu can sort of treat it like an official one
User4: i'm going a different route, setting up squid-deb-proxy to re-route requests
User4: so official-ness doesn't really matter :-)
User4: and omg why did i not do this before
User2: they had something like that set up at debconf
User4: actually it's because i used apt-cacher-ng and that has a knack for making transient issues permanent
User2: hmm, i'm using that without issues so far
User2: though I don't use it very heavily, and rarely in parallel
