Please be ready that your package request will not be processed immediately.
## Hosting a mirror
Consider hosting own Termux repository mirror to help to distribute bandwidth usage
between different servers. That will reduce chance of hitting the traffic quota on
our [Bintray](https://bintray.com) account.
When your mirror is ready, open the issue so we can include it into our mirror
list.
### Server requirements
Since Bintray does not provide Rsync access to package repositories, you will need
to mirror it over HTTP. We recommend to use `apt-mirror` for that.
Here are the server requirements:
- 20 GB of disk free space.
- Stable network with 3+ TB of monthly bandwidth.
- Cron job for updating mirror at least once in 3 days.
It also preferrable that your server uses a caching CDN.
Here are the URLs for mirroring:
```
https://dl.bintray.com/termux/termux-packages-24
https://dl.bintray.com/grimler/game-packages-24
https://dl.bintray.com/grimler/science-packages-24
https://dl.bintray.com/grimler/termux-root-packages-24
https://dl.bintray.com/xeffyr/unstable-packages
https://dl.bintray.com/xeffyr/x11-packages
```
If you want to include your mirror into our mirror list, ensure that monthly server's
uptime is 80% or higher.
