Not mirroring sources: a GPL violation?
by Imre Jonk 17 Jun '22

17 Jun '22

Hi all, I'm not sure if this is the right place to address this issue; as far as I'm aware, there is no Arch mailing list or forum for legal matters. What I'd like to discuss is the (unnecessary?) legal risk that mirror operators are exposed to when they don't mirror source packages. I believe that most mirrors are violating article 6 of the GPLv3 (or article 3 of the GPLv2). My reasoning goes like this: - The Arch repositories contain some software that is released under the GPL (or GPL-like) license. - Anyone distributing GPL-licensed software in compiled form is obligated to distribute the source code as well, either alongside the compiled software or, when accompanied by a 'written offer', on request at a later date. (there are a few more ways under the GPLv3 but I don't think they apply) - Few mirrors provide source packages, and as far as I'm aware, there are no mirrors out there that accompany the compiled software with a written offer. - Ergo, most Arch mirrors are violating the GPL. Note that I am by no means a GPL expert. Maybe I'm making some false assumption or other error in my reasoning, in which case, please feel free to point that out. I noticed that the ArchWiki considers mirroring sources optional [1], making it seem like the author of that article encourages violating the GPL in order to save some bandwidth and a bit of disk space. That article also mentions that the size of the 'sources' component was about 50 GiB in March 2018. I can't imagine it being significantly larger by now. [1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:NewMirrors#Mirror_size I've been looking for old discussions on this topic and only found a short mention in this forum thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1778318#p1778318 I'd love to hear your thoughts on this. Imre

[arch-mirrors] mirror.wuki.li IP address change
by Michael Armbruster 05 Mar '22

05 Mar '22

Dear community, my mirror mirror.wuki.li will change its IPv4 and IPv6 addresses as of now (please allow up to 48 hours until the change is propagated everywhere). Other than that, nothing should change (still same mirror I will be syncing from, still located in Finland). This is due to a change of server hardware. The old server will be available until many other services also switch from the old to the new hardware, so no downtime is to be expected. Monitoring could show different IP addresses for the domain, though. Old IPv4: 95.217.111.244 New IPv4: 135.181.209.112 Old IPv6: 2a01:4f9:4a:2d4b::1 New IPv6: 2a01:4f9:3a:274f::1 Kind regards, Michael Armbruster

[arch-mirrors] Broken IPv6 on Tier1 mirror arch.mirror.constant.com
by Hexhu 01 Mar '22

01 Mar '22

Hi all, Does anyone know how to contact the admin of arch.mirror.constant.com? They are a Tier-1 mirror but with only 50% completion rate. Their resolved IPv6 address is responsive and times out for any request. Please tell them to remove their AAAA DNS record on arch.mirror.constant.com or fix their network config. Check logs full of errors: https://archlinux.org/mirrors/constant.com/1008/ https://archlinux.org/mirrors/constant.com/1009/ https://archlinux.org/mirrors/constant.com/575/ Regards, Hexhu
