I've seen, on skeiron.org, there were mirrors of other repositories, and not only the ones from Nokia, so it's shouldn't be related to Nokia.

Now that it's down, is there an other way to download deb files of applications that can be found only on the Ovi Store ?
And how can I do a mirror of the Nokia repositories ?

You cant mirror it that would be illegal. There are rules whatever we like it or not.

My N9 has no harmattan anymore since I could reflash it because site down. Now I use sailfishos on it instead.

I want to mirror only legal things, like free Ovi applications, or Fremantle Nokia repositories.

Oh it's nice it works on the N9. Does it works on N900 to ?

As I have said before...
We need to worry about tablets-dev, not skeiron or mirroring things.

Anything maemo.org doesn't have available is because they can't.

So the only thing we can do is to spam Nokia Support about files on tablets-dev ? And what can we do for download.nokia.com and the Ovi Store ?

You can still reflash the n9. There are sites that link back to nokia for the flashable bins. Get yours before they fully disappear for good.
I just posted a link recently in another thread.

but..totally out of context..
how is the jolla experience on n9?
my current n9 stays on harmattan. if i manage to get another, then will try out jolla for sure.

A possible workaround could be to recreate deb files from pkgs already installed on your phone. and back them up, for reinstallation later. (worth a try i guess)

am going to try dpkg-repack for n900
(it probably needs an ext4 partition with good amount of free space, to get the perms correct. will be trying this later)

On n9, the N9 tweaks helps to recreate the debs.
