Can you post a copy of the output? I'm using reflector and rankmirrors, and I get this:

These are obviously not reachable URLs, but pacman fills in $repo and $arch from pacman.conf so it's working just fine for me.

Dear Archers,
is it true that rankmirrors can't handle mirrorlist urls like ftp://ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch?
While pacman works fine with this format, rankmirrors produces unreachable URLs.
Or am I misunderstanding something here?
Rock on, Mathias

Here's my first six. The gatech one didn't have a package at one point, rankmirrors sorted the whole US list.
Server = ftp://ftp.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/linux/distributions/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch Server = ftp://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch Server = ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch Server = ftp://locke.suu.edu/linux/dist/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch Server = ftp://lug.mtu.edu/archlinux/ftpfull/$repo/os/$arch Server = ftp://mirror.cs.vt.edu/pub/ArchLinux/$repo/os/$arch
They are in alphabetical order... This is known and fixed in git. We will probably make a new pacman release soon. Allan
