I’ve fixed that using your proposed “Dependency order” solution.  I haven’t analyzed the output, but it is a bit longer than the last time, so I assume it has saved me from dropping all packages in a loop.

If this is also found to be insufficient, I think I’d have to build the dependency graph from setup.ini and learn to walk it, rather than continue with this present linear algorithm.

Good catch!  The script now uses the output of uname -m to select the mirror subdirectory.
