What is lag time for packages showing up in RSS feed??/
All, Devs, I watch the rss feeds for arch packages to know what is coming/ready for update. I've been watching the 7.0.8 kernel in core testing waiting for it to show up in the core rss packages feed to then update. However, I've been surprised to find the packages already on mirrors but not yet reflected in the rss feed. I generally watch the kernels, so that is the one I'm most familiar with a lag-time on. Again today, checking 'checkupdates' on a box, the 7.0.8 kernel is already on my update mirror, but still not on the feed, e.g. $ checkupdates ... linux 7.0.7.arch2-1 -> 7.0.8.arch1-1 linux-docs 7.0.7.arch2-1 -> 7.0.8.arch1-1 linux-headers 7.0.7.arch2-1 -> 7.0.8.arch1-1 ... Does anybody know what the expected lag-time is with the rss feed? It just seems odd to have the package on the mirrors before the update is shown on the rss feed. I'd almost expect the opposite - for the rss feed to show the package move from testing to core before the propagation to all mirrors happens, just due to the various mirror update times. Strange enough I thought I would bring the issue up in case there was something odd going on with the rss feeds? Not a complaint, just an observation. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
