[arch-general] Broken mirror
A few days ago, I set arch to use the three mirrors in Brazil (since they're geographically closest to my country). One of these seems to be broken completely: archlinux.c3sl.ufpr.br. Pacman just times out: error: failed retrieving file 'testing.db' from archlinux.c3sl.ufpr.br : Connection timed out after 10000 milliseconds (and the same for all repositories) I made sure it really was broken: $ ping6 archlinux.c3sl.ufpr.br PING archlinux.c3sl.ufpr.br(sagres.c3sl.ufpr.br) 56 data bytes <left this for a while> ^C --- archlinux.c3sl.ufpr.br ping statistics --- 79 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 78008ms I didn't find who I should contact about it. -- Hugo Osvaldo Barrera A: No, it doesn't make sense. Q: Should I include quotations *after* my reply?

Google reveals ufpr.br is the "UFPR - Universidade Federal do Paraná". Their website isn't reachable, so your contact - from your friendly WHOIS service that shall remain unnamed (they're all spectacularly shady and broken, thoguh): nic-hdl-br: PRRKR person: PAULO ROBERTO ROCHA KRÜGER e-mail: kruger@ufpr.br created: 20101026 changed: 20110315 ...though that won't help, because probably with the connection their mail server has likely gone down along. Somebody in that city is having a bad day, I'm almost certain. cheers! mar77i

This mirror works, it is just not IPv6. % ping archlinux.c3sl.ufpr.br PING sagres.c3sl.ufpr.br (200.236.31.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from sagres.c3sl.ufpr.br (200.236.31.1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=39 time=341 ms 64 bytes from sagres.c3sl.ufpr.br (200.236.31.1): icmp_seq=2 ttl=39 time=346 ms ^C --- sagres.c3sl.ufpr.br ping statistics --- 2 packets transmitted, 2 received, 0% packet loss, time 1001ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 341.659/344.322/346.985/2.663 ms And downloading package from it works too. https://www.archlinux.org/mirrors/ https://www.archlinux.org/mirrors/status/

you must not be on a different internet. $ ping ufpr.br PING ufpr.br (200.17.203.23) 56(84) bytes of data. ^C --- ufpr.br ping statistics --- 74 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 72999ms martti@marspiarch: 1 ~$ ping ufpr.br PING ufpr.br (200.17.203.23) 56(84) bytes of data. ^C --- ufpr.br ping statistics --- 10 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 8999ms $ ping c3sl.ufpr.br ^C $ ping archlinux.c3sl.ufpr.br ^C $ ping archlinux.c3sl.ufpr.br ^C $ ping 200.236.31.1 PING 200.236.31.1 (200.236.31.1) 56(84) bytes of data. ^C --- 200.236.31.1 ping statistics --- 31 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 29006ms
make that "you must be on a different internet" also let me provide some more complete output: $ ping archlinux.c3sl.ufpr.br ping: unknown host archlinux.c3sl.ufpr.br $ ping sagres.c3sl.ufpr.br ping: unknown host sagres.c3sl.ufpr.br $ ping 200.236.31.1 PING 200.236.31.1 (200.236.31.1) 56(84) bytes of data. ^C --- 200.236.31.1 ping statistics --- 14 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 13008ms cheers! mar77i
