Debian mirrors backed by Fastly CDN

This is deb.debian.org. This service provides mirrors for the following Debian archive repositories:

/debian/
/debian-debug/
/debian-ports/
/debian-security/
/debian-security-debug/

The server deb.debian.org does not have packages itself, but the name has SRV records in DNS that lets apt in stretch and later find places.

To use it with a sufficiently recent apt, you for instance can put

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian unstable main
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-debug unstable-debug main
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-ports unstable main

in your sources.list.

As of July 2022 the SRV record is

_http._tcp.deb.debian.org.    IN      SRV     10 1 80 prod.debian.map.fastly.net.

If you hit the server behind deb.debian.org directly, either because you use an older apt or because you use a HTTP proxy that does not support SRV records, your requests will get HTTP redirected to one of the CDN instances.

This service is sponsored by Fastly.
