常用示例
Create sources.list using the fastest mirror
sudo netselect-apt
Specify Debian distribution (default is stable)
sudo netselect-apt [testing]
Include non-free section
sudo netselect-apt -n
Limit mirrors to a specific country
sudo netselect-apt -c [India]
Include deb-src lines for source packages
sudo netselect-apt -s
Write output to a custom file
sudo netselect-apt -o [/etc/apt/sources.list]
Use a specific architecture
sudo netselect-apt -a [amd64]
说明
netselect-apt automatically finds the fastest Debian mirror and generates an appropriate sources.list file. It downloads the official Debian mirror list, optionally filters by country, tests each server for latency using netselect, and creates a sources.list with the fastest mirror. This is particularly useful when setting up new Debian systems or when experiencing slow package downloads from the default mirror.
