I know the subject of mirrors has been gone over time and again on here, but after a couple of hours' searching I'm getting a bit fed up. The Fedora webpages give a long list of mirrors, and sure enough many of them have gigabytes of useful stuff. But how many of them are in a format that apt-get can use? I'm in the UK and we have 2 mirrors here: http://zeniiia.linux.org.uk/pub/distributions/fedora/linux/core/ and http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/ But from what I can gleam of the required directory structure for apt-get, neither of these two sites is of any use to me. In particular I want to find (where ever they may be) enough of the XFree86 sources for me to build kopete, but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to create my sources.list file to work with either of these mirrors. Can anyone advise on how this should be made to work?
