DetailsDescription:
For an unknown amount of time, maybe a couple of weeks, I have not gotten package updates on my arch systems. Suspecting an issue with the mirror, I moved a different mirror to the top of the mirror list, and as a confirmation to my suspicion, a slew of updates came down. It would seem that the ftp://mirrors.easynews.com/linux/archlinux/$repo/os/x86_64 has not had an update in some time. Additional info: Server = ftp://mirrors.easynews.com/linux/archlinux/$repo/os/x86_64 Steps to reproduce: 1) Update your system using a different mirror than easynews. 2) move the easynews line to the top of /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist 3) pacman -Scc && pacman -Syy 4) pacman -Su 5) Observe all of the warnings about packages being newer than the version stored on the mirror. |
This task depends upon
They used to sync from rsync.archlinux.org, but it is disabled for non-tier1 mirrors now.
support@easynews.com never replied, and I don't know any other address I can use to contact them about our mirror.
