[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal Tags: trixie X-Debbugs-Cc: debmirror@packages.debian.org Control: affects -1 + src:debmirror User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org Usertags: pu

[ Reason ] Mirroring Ubuntu no longer works due to DDoS mitigations.

[ Impact ] Raphaël Halimi reported in https://bugs.debian.org/1135891:

Since last week-end's DDOS attack, Canonical made some changes in their infrastructure and libwww-perl's default User-Agent string (libwww-perl/X.XX) is now blocked, making debmirror unable to mirror Ubuntu and Launchpad repositories.

[ Tests ] I've tested this manually as follows:

debmirror --method=http --host=archive.ubuntu.com --root=ubuntu --dist=resolute --rsync-extra=none --keyring=/path/to/local/ubuntu-archive-keyring.gpg --progress test-mirror

(I also ran a similar test against deb.debian.org to make sure that still works OK.)

[ Risks ] It's hard to say for certain whether anything will object to the different User-Agent, but in general setting a more specific User-Agent is usually a good thing in this sort of tool. The change itself is pretty trivial.

[ Checklist ] [x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them [x] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable [x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable

[ Changes ] Set "User-Agent: debmirror/$version".
