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.
