I request the admins to please take the neccessary steps for getting
this done as the ABRT needs them for generating the backtrace<span

as said in '/usr/bin/abrt-debuginfo-install' which in turn looks for
local mirrors but in vain has to
look abroad for the same which in itself is a time consuming task, and
the purpose of mirrors is not fulfilled to fullest.<br>
