auto-config tools, such as ratoolset, do not use the mirrored data,
only the origin data.  one specifies the list of registries to
search.  so, mirroring by the irr is neither necessary nor
sufficient, though it can be convenient for lookup by wetware.
I think you will find that they can be configured to use different sources but they are at the same registry so you need to find a registry that mirrors all the sources you want to query.
