In the sectionWHAT USERS WILL LOOK FOR the link explains how configurations may differ
a bit from each other. Indeed, comparing worldwild devuan mirrors, I've noticed an inconsistency in the directory
tree among those sites that support a mirror alias per country and those that, apparently, do not. In
the former case, tested with the examples below:
au.deb.devuan.org
de.deb.devuan.org
fr.deb.devuan.org
us.deb.devuan.org
the expected directory /devuan does exist, whereas in the latter case (e.g. in case of countries like
it, ne, es...) the alias defaults to deb.devuan.org, where the /devuan folder isn't directly located
under the ServerRoot, but under the /packages subdir, maybe due to the extra content: the site provides
also devuan iso images at /devuan_chimaera, /devuan_daedalus, etc.
Cheers,
Aitor.
