Decomissioning the repo.hyron.dev package mirror
by Ilya Zlobintsev 10 Oct '26

10 Oct '26

Hi, I'm the owner of the repo.hyron.dev mirror in Ukraine. Unfortunately, due to continuous attacks on energy and networking infrastructure, I'm no longer able to maintain stable operation of the mirror. As such, I'm requesting it to be removed from the mirrorlist.

Mirrors reporting incorrect "Last-Modified" time
by technobirb 07 Oct '26

07 Oct '26

Ello, I was told to email here about this issue: Half of the Arch mirrors are not returning the original modification time of the files as seen on geo.mirror.pkgbuild.com in the HTTP "Last-Modified" header. This causes the user to be unable to upgrade DB (with a server without this bug) due to server HTTP 304, even if there is a newer copy of the file available. Forum discussion (See #11 for how this bug works): https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=314636 Test script: https://gist.github.com/technobirb/f1e229cd27d2cc7380556841dd63e4b6 Test script output: https://privatebin.net/?1ebe8ea20c10304e#CjZu2RcFUgrLczLeTLyz2Xxo3BAETBbWY6… (See a list of buggy servers at the end. Some of them might be just outdated. The output expires in 3 days.) A browser F12 screenshot of one of the affected servers is attached. At the moment the latest modification time of core.db is "Sun, 04 Oct 2026 15:25:18 GMT" but the server returns "Mon, 05 Oct 2026 02:57:27 GMT" which was close to when the screenshot was taken (but not exactly...).

Correction: mirror2.keiminem.com Physical Relocation & Extended Service Restoration (Feb 7–11, 2026 KST)
by me0kmin27＠keiminem.com 14 Jul '26

14 Jul '26

Dear Users, Hello, this is Keiminem. I am writing to issue a correction to the previous notice regarding mirror2.keiminem.com. This interruption is due to a physical server relocation. Please note that even after the server is restored, the mirror service will not resume until the distribution maintainers/administrators register the new IP address. The relocation window is scheduled for February 7–11, 2026 (KST). During this period, mirror2.keiminem.com will be unavailable, and service restoration may extend beyond this window depending on when the new IP is registered. mirror.keiminem.com will remain available. Please update your configuration in advance to avoid disruption. Thank you for your understanding. Best regards, Keiminem

Rsync error with geo.mirror.pkgbuild.com mirrors
by Ava Glass 27 Apr '26

27 Apr '26

Hi, I noticed today that my local mirror hasn't properly synchronised from london.mirror.pkgbuild.com since the 18th April. Upon checking the logs i noticed i was getting the following errors rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (4112177 bytes received so far) [receiver] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(232) [receiver=3.4.1] rsync: [generator] write error: Broken pipe (32) rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at io.c(849) [generator=3.4.1] It seems to only be happening when rsync tries to actually download the files as i can perform a --list-only operation with no errors. I've checked https://archlinux.org/mirrors/geo.mirror.pkgbuild.com/ and it appears other mirrors are also experiencing this issue. Is there some downtime or a known issue with rsync on these mirrors i missed or is there perhaps something malfunctioning here? Thanks, Ava
