[arch-general] Mirror not synchronized since January
Hi all, Today, I discover two machines not having same version of one package. Both are up-to-date (just did a `pacman -Suy`). But they do not use the same mirror. Indeed: $ curl -s -I 'http://archlinux.de-labrusse.fr/core/os/x86_64/core.db' | grep -i Last-Modified: Last-Modified: Tue, 19 Jan 2021 22:22:50 GMT $ curl -s -I 'https://mirror.wormhole.eu/archlinux/core/os/x86_64/core.db' | grep -i Last-Modified: last-modified: Mon, 08 Mar 2021 21:58:07 GMT I understand there may be a little time gap between mirror synchronize themselves. But 19 January seems far from today. Is this expected? P.S.: I did not checked other mirrors. -- Henry-Joseph Audéoud

This page can show you how up to date various mirrors are: https://archlinux.org/mirrors/status/ If you're using one that's getting out of date, you can switch to another. DR

OK, many thanks. For curiosity. Pacman reports the package `pacman-mirrorlist` (from a up-to-date mirror ;-) ) was recompiled at 2 March, far after the last sync of this out-of-date repo. When will that mirror be finally dropped from pacman-mirrorlist? -- Henry-Joseph Audéoud

It probably won't be; if you look, the issue is that the Tier 1 mirror it syncs from is out of date. This mirror itself is doing the right thing.

hi, I recommend you read the wiki [1] and update your mirrors if necessary, you can also use rankmirror [1] or reflector [2] [1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mirrors [2] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Reflector -- Walter Casanova
