## My setup Cauldron with two sets of official repos - One from a fast German mirror that tends to be a few hours being tier1 mirrors - One from distrib-coffee, slow but up to date This way I can download most packages fast (as the first mirror takes precedence), but I also have access to the latest cauldron builds as soon as they reach d-c. ## The problem When using `urpmq -i $pkgname` to query the info for a given package, it will download the compressed media info from both mirrors before output the information twice, as in: ------------ $ urpmq -i fs-uae http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/mirrors/Mageia/distrib/cauldron/x86_64/media/core/release/media_info/20161015-075113-info.xml.lzma http://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/Mageia/distrib/cauldron/x86_64/media/core/release/media_info/20161015-143328-info.xml.lzma Name : fs-uae Version : 2.6.2 Release : 2.mga6 Group : Emulators Size : 13986737 Architecture: x86_64 Source RPM : fs-uae-2.6.2-2.mga6.src.rpm URL : http://fs-uae.net Summary : Amiga emulator with on-screen GUI and online play support Description : FS-UAE is an Amiga emulator for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X based on UAE/WinUAE, with a focus on emulating games. [...] Name : fs-uae Version : 2.6.2 Release : 2.mga6 Group : Emulators Size : 13986737 Architecture: x86_64 Source RPM : fs-uae-2.6.2-2.mga6.src.rpm URL : http://fs-uae.net Summary : Amiga emulator with on-screen GUI and online play support Description : FS-UAE is an Amiga emulator for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X based on UAE/WinUAE, with a focus on emulating games. [...] ------------ As d-c is slow, it takes a while before I get the information I wanted. Also, it doesn't appear clearly which output comes from which mirror, so in cases where the output differs, it can be confusing. ## A possible solution Make urpmq output results sequentially, so that you can see the results of the first mirror as soon as the file is downloaded, and it would then go on to the second mirror (and in a use case such as mine, I could just Ctrl-C it if I don't care about the d-c result). urpmf already seems to work this way: ----------- $ urpmf --license fs-uae fs-uae-launcher:GPLv2+ fs-uae-arcade:GPLv2+ fs-uae:GPLv2+ http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/mirrors/Mageia/distrib/cauldron/x86_64/media/debug/core/release/media_info/20161015-074904-info.xml.lzma fs-uae-debuginfo:GPLv2+ http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/mirrors/Mageia/distrib/cauldron/x86_64/media/core/updates/media_info/20150703-235257-info.xml.lzma [...] http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/mirrors/Mageia/distrib/cauldron/x86_64/media/debug/tainted/backports/media_info/20150605-201926-info.xml.lzma http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/mirrors/Mageia/distrib/cauldron/i586/media/core/release/media_info/20161015-075346-info.xml.lzma fs-uae-arcade:GPLv2+ fs-uae-launcher:GPLv2+ fs-uae:GPLv2+ http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/mirrors/Mageia/distrib/cauldron/i586/media/core/updates/media_info/20150703-235256-info.xml.lzma [...] http://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/Mageia/distrib/cauldron/i586/media/core/release/media_info/20161015-142659-info.xml.lzma fs-uae-arcade:GPLv2+ fs-uae-launcher:GPLv2+ fs-uae:GPLv2+ -----------
