[arch-dev-public] Poor man's mirror redirector
by Pierre Schmitz 15 Jun '10

15 Jun '10

Hi all, I wrote a simply redirector script for fun*. It uses geoip to redirect you to a random Arch mirror in your country; but only if that mirror has synced within the last 24h. It is located at https://downloads.archlinux.de/ So you can for example download an iso using this URL: https://downloads.archlinux.de/iso/2010.05/archlinux-2010.05-netinstall-i68… or simply redirect to a dir like https://downloads.archlinux.de/iso/ It's probably not that useful and don't even think about using that url in pacman. It will redirect you to a random mirror on every request no matter if that mirror is up or has this file. (also pacman doesn't seem to handle https; but once could use the curl xfer command (wget has poor https support too)) However, a possible usage might be to use this for simpler iso download. Greetings, Pierre *) https://git.archlinux.de/www.archlinux.de.git/tree/pages/GetFileFromMirror.… -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

[arch-dev-public] coreutils - remove i18n patch?
by Allan McRae 12 Jun '10

12 Jun '10

Hi, The coreutils-i18n patch we currently use adds some extra support for multibyte characters. However, the patch is entirely unsupported upstream. I currently rely on the Fedora maintainer to fix any issues that are found and to update it for each release. He also finds that patch a nightmare. So the question is, should we remove that patch? It is not acceptable by the usual Arch patching rules given it is not supported upstream, but it does provide better multibytle locale support (subject to it working...). Removing the patch will probably result in a few regressions with multibyte locales, but we can then take those issues upstream. Any opinions on this? Allan
