May I ask you for what do you need it ?
Thanks for your answer Segio. Sure you may ask ;-) I use it for what it is programmed: consistant mirroring debian-repos. I use it for wheezy, stretch, buster, but, as it is best practice, not for security-updates. My usecase is 1. my homelab and 2. for some students and for explaining some people from school GNU/debian Linux. So we can offline install Machines and so on. My preference to a server-OS is CentOS. Now Centos 8 is out of the door and i want to setup my EL7 servers with new EL8 i openend this case, because this package is available for EL6 and EL7 too. I don't know if it is many more work for you with the new EL8-builds (streams, modules and so on...), but if it is then close this bug. My first thought was a simple rpm-package for EL8. Should i try a Fedora28 rpm instead (it is not a good way i think)?
