Grrr, I use approx to cache/mirror/whatever the downloaded packages
inside my LAN, mainly to save on precious bigpond bandwidth, but also
to speed up the update process.  With multiverse not being mirrores by
Telstra I am not sure whether I can simply use the following
configuration in approx.conf

ubuntu http://mirror.pacific.net.au/ubuntu/
ubuntu http://ubuntu.apt-get.eu/ubuntu

and let it fail over to the normal Ubuntu repository when updating
multiverse.  Does anyone have any insight into this?
