NAME
nala-fetch - Fetch fast mirrors to improve download speed
SYNOPSIS
nala fetch [--options]
DESCRIPTION
nala will fetch fast mirrors to improve download speed. nala parses the following files to find mirrors: For Debian <https://mirror-master.debian.org/status/Mirrors.masterlist> For Ubuntu <https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors-rss> The resulting file of mirrors will be located at /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nala-sources.list
OPTIONS
--debian Instead of auto detecting the distro and release, you can use this switch to specify a Debian release. nala fetch --debian sid --ubuntu Much like --debian but for Ubuntu nala fetch --ubuntu jammy --auto Run fetch uninteractively. Will still prompt for overwriting the sources file if it exists. --fetches This controls the number of mirrors to fetch. With --auto this will default to 3 mirrors, and write as many mirrors as you specify to the file. In the interactive version of fetch, this will default to 16 mirrors. Instead of controlling the amount of mirrors that will be written, it controls the amount of mirrors you are shown to select from. --sources Add the source repos for the mirror, if it exists. By default nala will not include the source repos. --foss Omits contrib and non-free components of the Debian mirrors. This switch does nothing on Ubuntu systems. --debug Print helpful information for solving issues. If you're submitting a bug report try running the command again with --debug and providing the output to the devs, it may be helpful. -v, --verbose Disable scrolling text and print extra information -h, --help Shows this man page.
