Add Packages.xz support
Description
Hello there! I noticed that the main Debian Bookworm repository works well with RMT, but the Debian-Security repository only copies dists/
without the pool/
directory which contains the packages. Upon inspection of the RMT code I realized that only Packages.gz
files are parsed, which are not contained in the Debian-Security repo.
How to test
Mirror http://security.debian.org/debian-security/dists/bookworm-security/main/binary-all/ or any repository which uses the .xz
variant over Packages.gz
