commit 4e7c3c61673e35f8b16d3ec5a2167244e86f56fe
Author: Jochen Sprickerhof <jspricke@debian.org>
Date:   Sat Oct 18 20:04:56 2025 +0200

    debootsnap: query the unstable Debian archive
    
    This allows using the deb.debian.org archive in addition to
    snapshot.debian.org, for example when snapshost or metasnap is lagging
    behind.

commit 5b6fa5fcaf958f03d9681560261c26ed66d2c9fd
Author: Jochen Sprickerhof <jspricke@debian.org>
Date:   Thu Oct 23 15:31:50 2025 +0200

    scripts/devscripts/proxy.py: support all archive areas
    
    debootsnap queries for: debian debian-debug debian-security debian-ports
    debian-volatile debian-backports. Instead of keeping this list in sync
    just except more areas.
