AFAIK the git from busybox.net is returned in service as soon as:

- I told Petr from suse.org that it should not bother me anymore
- I started a fork of Busybox (which is nothing else than a readme)

boom! the git.busybox.net returned online. Do you see the magic? LOL

People heads are still troublesome? No worry, I can run an extra mile! ;-)

By the way, in three days the Ubuntu 26.04 LTS is expected to be released.

Mikes, you worry too much and you got worried for nothing, after all.
