ubuntu 10.04.1 jigdo images on mirrors are missing files

[Justin Doiel]

Binary package hint: jigdo

when using any of the .jigdo files on the 10.04.1 rleases page, you always end up short files. for instance, the i386 alternative image ends up with 73 files missing, all of them linux-kernel related.

see the below for some of its output:

-----------------------------------------------------------------
If you already have a previous version of the CD you are
downloading, jigdo can re-use files on the old CD that are also
present in the new image, and you do not need to download them
again. Mount the old CD ROM and enter the path it is mounted under
(e.g. `/mnt/cdrom').
Alternatively, just press enter if you want to start downloading
the remaining files.
Files to scan:

-----------------------------------------------------------------
The jigdo file refers to files stored on Ubuntu mirrors. Please
choose an Ubuntu mirror as follows: Either enter a complete URL
pointing to a mirror (in the form
`http://archive.ubuntu.com/archive/'), or enter any regular expression
for searching through the list of mirrors: Try a two-letter
country code such as `de', or a country name like `United
States', or a server name like `sunsite'.

------ CUT HERE ------

it looks to me as if the mirrors have moved on, and no-one is regenerating the jigdo files.

I would love a solution to this, as i am running classes where we download cd images, and would love to use my local apt-cache to not abuse our internet connection.
