Anyone know what's up with the mirrors? Looks like nearly all the US mirrors (RIT, SUU, EasyNews, UMFlint, GaTech, VT - even Schlunix) are running 1-2 days old. Only mirror that seems to have new packages is Unixheads, and it's *dog slow*. Is there some Arch-wide problem going on? TIA, DR

Afaik there are just too many mirrors syncing from the bandwith and rsync slot limited master server. -- Pierre Schmitz, http://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

Maybe as a result of the SVN transition that's going on just now? Should be resolved soon enough, I figure -- Andrei Thorp, Developer: Xandros Corp. (http://www.xandros.com)

GerBra has replied to the topic '[Announce] Mirror Status' to which you are subscribed. There may be more new replies, but this is the only notification you will receive until you visit the board again. The message reads as follows: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Another massive out-of-sync "explosion" of US+EU mirrors. Seems to be related with huge transfer during the libjpeg update. So when doing currently a -Syu make sure you use an synced mirror to avoid getting not only the new libjpeg, but also other new packages which depend on libjpeg... And if you switch a mirror: Don't forget to do a pacman -Syy ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The post is located at http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=585411#p585411
