+Find nearest mirror
+===================

+Newer approach for selecting mirror is via DNS balancing from

-Package priority.
-=================
+  deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/  stable  main contrib non-free
+
+Older approach to select nearest mirrors is::
+

+  $ netselect-apt stable
+  $ netselect-apt testing
+  $ netselect-apt unstable
+  $ netselect-apt experimental
+  $ netselect-apt sid
