sourceforge mirror

FRom where I am, the default sourceforge mirror is very bad and many source package comes from sourceforge. The problem is that I do not see how to convince makepkg to use another mirror (other than editing the PKGBUILD every time). Everyone has a solution?

Re: sourceforge mirror

Use /etc/hosts.  This is what I have:

# local sourceforge mirror
150.101.135.12    dl.sourceforge.net dl.sf.net downloads.sourceforge.net

Of course, you need to put the right IP for a mirror that is good for you.
