[solved] rankmirrors -t shows LAN pacman shared cache as unreachable

hi,

I set a lan shared pacman read-only cache, as described here.

here's what I do, and what happens:

echo "Server = http://192.168.1.78:8080 | rankmirrors -t - -m 2
Querying servers. This may take some time...
   *
 Servers sorted by time (seconds):
http://192.168.1.78:8080 : unreachable

if I omit the -t option, it works:

echo "Server = http://192.168.1.78:8080 | rankmirrors - -m 2
Server = 192.168.1.78:8080

Re: [solved] rankmirrors -t shows LAN pacman shared cache as unreachable

got it.
that happens because there's no hierarchy ($repo/os/$arch) under server's root
