[Announce] Mirror Status

It is checked. The script loads the most recent mirrorlist from the main database (not the package). See https://www.archlinux.de/?page=MirrorStatus

Dieter@be · 2009-12-08 20:14:37

purely FYI: that mirror is hosted at my employer and i admin them

The presence of your name in the bug report asking to add them hinted at that, yes .

Naive and underqualified as I was I even had a chat at Kangaroot when they were hiring a while ago . Needless to say my amateur Linux knowledge didn't stand the test...

Hiya,

unixheads has completely dropped Arch so it can be removed from the mirror check list:

18 November 09: Things are starting to settle down, I have limited the heavy abuser mirror to 100Mbit/s so that the other mirrors will not be impacted. In addition, this situation forced us to audit what we are mirroring. Things like Archlinux are going to get moved off as the Kernel.org mirror has started mirroring them. We are both on ISC's network, and they are better equipped to handle the larger bursts of traffic.

Drag. They were the best mirror that I've ever found.

Hasn't synced for 116 days.....when can they be removed from the official mirror list as being as waste of space?

Pierre · 2009-12-25 09:30:51

Open a bug report.

The above mirror is down completely.

Any alternatives to gigenet? It was syncing with MB's and I now need a performant one which is somewhere near St. Louis?

forkboy · 2010-01-31 16:57:48

Should I report this anywhere?

Try reading the news!

mdev · 2010-05-12 19:10:21

Since three days the kernel.org mirror(s?) behave very strangely on my installations. On every other "pacman -Syyu" I get either

warning: licenses: local (2.6-1) is newer than core (2.5-1)

or:

warning: libpciaccess: local (0.11.0-1) is newer than extra (0.10.9-1)
warning: lm_sensors: local (3.1.2-3) is newer than extra (3.1.2-1)
warning: mobile-broadband-provider-info: local (20100510-1) is newer than extra (0.20100301-1)
warning: mplayer: local (31147-1) is newer than extra (31040-1)
warning: nss: local (3.12.6-2) is newer than extra (3.12.6-1)
warning: upower: local (0.9.3-1) is newer than extra (0.9.2-2)
warning: vlc: local (1.0.6-2) is newer than extra (1.0.6-1)

However, kernel.org is the ONLY mirror in my pacman.d/mirrorlist.

$ grep -v ^# /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Server = http://mirrors.kernel.org/archlinux/$repo/os/x86_64

So I definitely got the newer local packages from the same server(s). And why is there alternation between the two sets of warnings?

I guess these are several servers, maybe out of sync -- but for three days?

wonder · 2010-05-12 19:13:12

mirrors.kernel.org is not a single server. it has different addresses. maybe one of the servers is behind.

$ host mirrors.kernel.org
mirrors.kernel.org is an alias for mirrors.geo.kernel.org.
mirrors.geo.kernel.org is an alias for mirrors.us.kernel.org.
mirrors.us.kernel.org has address 204.152.191.39
mirrors.us.kernel.org has address 149.20.20.135

mdev · 2010-05-12 19:36:16

Thanks a lot for the fast reply! OK, so I'll just wait.
In my case it's these two servers (which explains the alternation mentioned):

$ host mirrors.kernel.org
mirrors.kernel.org is an alias for mirrors.geo.kernel.org.
mirrors.geo.kernel.org is an alias for mirrors.eu.kernel.org.
mirrors.eu.kernel.org has address 130.239.17.6
mirrors.eu.kernel.org has address 199.6.1.174

killajoe · 2010-05-12 22:02:32

But why there are different versions of packages in the same dir???

wonder · 2010-05-12 22:08:24

because they want to be like that. to offer a rollback solution. personally i dislike the idea since this server is a tier 1 and because of that no other server can sync from them

You can check which mirrors are syncing and while have fallen behind: https://www.archlinux.de/?page=MirrorProblems

cesura · 2010-08-05 05:39:49

http://archlinux.unixheads.org

Hasn't appeared to update for a while.

Pierre · 2010-08-05 09:28:04

It is not really necessary to tell us which mirrors are down or outdated. We are already aware of these issues. It might take some time to be fixed as we have no direct influence on our mirrors.

virusso80 · 2010-08-13 06:47:29

I think italian repositorie are not synced!! i was not able to update my system since i changed repositories.

Pierre · 2010-08-13 07:42:29

There was only one mirror in Italy. There is not much we can do as long as mirror admins are not responding.

toketin · 2010-08-15 11:27:29

Now that puzzle.ch is not updated, which fast repo can we use?

whaler · 2010-08-17 20:12:37

Does anyone know the new URL, if any, for
http://repo.archlinux.fr/x86_64 ?

The above is what I used to have as an additional Server/repo in pacman.conf, but after setting 'Architecture = auto', it installs a 32-bit version of 'redshift' instead of the 64-bit for my system. (Or at least I believe that is what has happened when I get the "wrong ELF class" error when trying to run redshift.)

Redshift is also available in AUR, but I need the French Arch repository for a couple of other apps as well ...

P.S.
I have tried altering the URL to
http://repo.archlinux.fr/$repo/os/$arch
and
http://archlinux.fr/$repo/os/$arch

but no can do.

Edit:

OK, never mind. Solution found.
