Upon reviewing this section of code more:
[...]
474 idx = mirror.find("://")
475 method = mirror[:idx]
476 mirror = mirror[idx+3:]
477
478 idx = mirror.find("/")
479 host = mirror[:idx]
480 mirror = mirror[idx+1:]
481
482 idx = mirror.rfind("/dists/")
483 suite = mirror[idx+7:]
484 mirror = mirror[:idx]
485
486 mirror_data = "--method=%s --host=%s --root=%s --dist=%s " %
( method , host , mirror , suite )
[...]
I think now I know how to use this feature. In this case, I recommend to update the
documentation so that the correct syntax is shown explicity.
