Thanks for the report Olaf, I just assumed it'd work and hadn't had the
occasion to test it.

Just now I manually cycled (with a local hosts file) through the IPs
that dig deb.devuan.org spits out and tested 'deb.devuan.org' on a
browser, have following remarks:

192.80.24.194: only serves debian and debian-security --> no go.
185.26.197.8: serves an empty page, /merged/ is a 404 --> no go
91.121.196.103: serves a page with a text, /merged/ is a 404 --> no go
185.183.113.129: serves packages under /devuan/ --> no go
5.196.38.18: actually works
37.187.111.86: also works
91.102.134.99: also works

So, right now 4/7 = 57% of the IPs in the RR are broken '^^.

This also made me realise: we need a way to check mirrors in the RR and
to remove those that are faulty / get awfully outdated.
