Description Michał Wernicki 2013-02-09 15:24:34 CET
-= as in topic =-
It's noticeable when comparing contents of ftp://ftp.linuxcabal.org/pub/mirrors/Mageia/distrib/2/i586/media/nonfree/updates/media_info/ and ftp://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/Mageia/distrib/2/i586/media/nonfree/updates/media_info/ and the same shortened by media_info/ . Both are Tier1 mirrors.

maybe you checked when our admin pushed updates to main repo, now it's ok.

and a better file is to see ftp://ftp.linuxcabal.org/pub/mirrors/Mageia/mageia_timestamp or any one in cauldron (as stable release don't updates theses files so much)

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => INVALID

Yup - now it's ok. But back then the file ftp://ftp.linuxcabal.org/pub/mirrors/Mageia/distrib/2/i586/media/nonfree/updates/flash-player-plugin-kde-11.2.202.262-1.mga2.nonfree.i586.rpm wasn't there. This missing file was at the time of writing 41 hours old and files in media_info/ (of nonfree/updates/ and core/updates/) were more than a week old, and I haven't received any update notification for few days (more than usual) so I deem that there was a problem.

I'm glad that it's fixed now and I appreciate the info where to look when the mirror wast last updated.

Resolution: INVALID => FIXED
