legacy materials moving from archive.raspbian.org to legacy.raspbian.org

As you may be aware Debian wheezy has now been fully end of lifed (including lts) by Debian.
As a result I am moving a number of legacy and mostly wheezy-related materials from archive.raspbian.org to legacy.raspbian.org.
This includes the complete contents of the following directories.
images
installer
mate
multiarchcross
qemu
The "mate" directory does contain some packages that were aimed at jessie, however before the jessie stable releases these were superseded by mate packages in jessie proper.
It also includes the wheezy and wheezy-staging suites in the main raspbian repo.
legacy.raspbian.org is live now. The materials in question will be removed from archive.raspbian.org/mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian.raspberrypi.org in a week or so.

Thanks for the info.
Also, thanks for not just deleting the old repo. I still have one legacy system that runs Wheezy. It's a long term project of mine to migrate all of its functions to a new system. I've done a couple so far, but there's a lot to do including rewriting old code and reconfiguring hardware..

I got distracted by other things and a week or so turned into a month and a half, but the legacy materials have now finally been removed.

You cant. There's no more updates for the legacy stuff not even security updates.
To be able to update you need to be on a SUPPORTED version of Raspbian.

two years on and i've now added jessie/jessie-staging to legacy.raspbian.org . It will be removed from the regular mirrors in due course.

Thank you for the update on this. I have updated the file "
/etc/apt/sources.list" with the following entry:
Code: Select all
deb http://legacy.raspbian.org/raspbian/ jessie main contrib
and the command "
sudo apt update" works again for my legacy platform running the Raspbian Stretch OS and using some packages from the Raspbian Jessie distribution :D .

So, just to confirm. I have the following two files (one in /etc/apt and the other in /etc/apt/sourced.list.d) on my Jessie system:
/etc/apt/sources.lst:
Code: Select all
deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ jessie main contrib non-free rpi
# Uncomment line below then 'apt-get update' to enable 'apt-get source'
deb-src http://archive.raspbian.org/raspbian/ jessie main contrib non-free rpi
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/raspi.list:
Code: Select all
deb http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/ jessie main ui
# Uncomment line below then 'apt-get update' to enable 'apt-get source'
#deb-src http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/ jessie main ui
Do I just change all occurrences of either archive.raspberrypi.org or mirrorredirectory.raspbian.org to legacy.raspbian.org? Is that it?
Notes:
1) Note the switch from raspberrypi.org to raspbian.org.
2) I'm not sure about the sources entry. I just checked one of my "wheezy" systems, and its "sources" entry is not like the above; it has something like archive.ox.ac.uk (looks like an Oxford U server).

Could someone please respond to my previous post on this thread? Thanks!
I need to upgrade my Jessie systems to point at the "legacy" server, and I want to make sure I am doing it the right way (before I embark on doing so).

'Any references to archive.raspbian.org mirrordirector.raspbian.org or raspbian.raspberrypi.org should be replaced with legacy.raspbian.org
archive.raspberrypi.org should not be changed, that is the repo run by raspberry pi foundation/trading rather than the raspbian project.
Note that there will be no further updates, security or otherwise to these repositories.

Another couple of years have passed, another Debian release cycle has happened, and stretch has taken it's place on legacy.raspbian.org to make room for trixie. It will be removed from the main mirrors soon.
