Hi Fernando Miguel,

Adding both repositories to sources.list will work but it will hit both
repositories.

Configuring archive.ubuntu.com in local DNS may not work for all because
some users sources.list entries are different (
in.archive.ubuntu.com/us.archive.ubuntu.com/archive.ubuntu.com) depending
on the region configured.
