[Solved] Report bad mirror?

I was having an issue with reflector adding a bad mirror, that for the past 4 days-ish would tell me that my system was up to date, but 'checkupdates' (in conky) was telling me I had updates. Every time this happened, 'arch.mirror.square-r00t.net' was the leading mirror in my mirrorlist. I would delete that mirror from my list and everything would work properly. I've added an exception to reflector.conf to block 'arch.mirror.square-r00t.net' and it works fine.

My question is, how do I report that there's a problem with this mirror?

Re: [Solved] Report bad mirror?

Sounds weird, because it is being reported as up to date and I can clearly see fresh packages on it.

But in general: open a new bug report (“Arch Linux” as the project).

Sometimes I seem a bit harsh — don’t get offended too easily!

Re: [Solved] Report bad mirror?

Did you try `pacman -Syyu` with arch.mirror.square-r00t.net as the primary mirror to see if the local database files had somehow had their timestamps set ahead of the servers?

No, I didn't notice any timestamps. I wasn't paying attention.
