&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;Suggestions from Debian's pabs (pabs@d.o) to inject into Software Heritage archive all the distributions listed in the [https://wiki.debian.org/Derivatives/Census Debian derivatives census]:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Hi folks,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the DebConf16 talk we discussed importing Debian derivatives source&lt;br /&gt;
packages into the Software Heritage archive. Below is a rough guide&lt;br /&gt;
about how to do it. If you want more detail I can give it in person at&lt;br /&gt;
DebConf16, via email or via IRC.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First download the census page to get a list of derivatives:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dex/census.git/tree/Makefile.var#n69&lt;br /&gt;
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dex/census.git/tree/bin/get-wiki-html&lt;br /&gt;
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dex/census.git/tree/bin/wiki-html-to-derivatives-list&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then download the text versions of their wiki pages:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dex/census.git/tree/Makefile.deriv#n51&lt;br /&gt;
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dex/census.git/tree/bin/get-wiki-text&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then extract the sources.list files from each wiki page:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dex/census.git/tree/Makefile.deriv#n57&lt;br /&gt;
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dex/census.git/tree/bin/wiki-text-to-sources-list&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then download the apt meta-data into a subdirectory, the APT_CONFIG&lt;br /&gt;
environment variable must be set otherwise apt will use system hooks:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dex/census.git/tree/Makefile.deriv#n60&lt;br /&gt;
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dex/census.git/tree/bin/get-package-lists&lt;br /&gt;
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dex/census.git/tree/bin/fakegpgv&lt;br /&gt;
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dex/census.git/tree/etc/apt.conf&lt;br /&gt;
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dex/census.git/tree/Makefile.deriv#n6&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then you will need an importer for apt repositories that is based on&lt;br /&gt;
sources.list input files. The compare-source-package-list script from&lt;br /&gt;
the derivatives census has a loop around source packages, you would&lt;br /&gt;
just need to add downloading them using the apt acquire system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dex/census.git/tree/bin/compare-source-package-list#n1149&lt;br /&gt;
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dex/census.git/tree/Makefile.deriv#n63&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
