Description:
The sort order for the comments in mirrorlist is in order for ISO 3166-1 Country Code not by English name. Why not switch the comments to be by country code instead of name? Then the order will make sense and it also avoids any naming issues.

Additional info:
* pacman-mirrorlist 20120908-1

Yeah, known issue, just didn't care that much to fix it. Patches welcome for archweb to fix it if you're bored, otherwise this isn't really a top priority.

  • Field changed: Summary ([pacman-mirrorlist] 20120908-1 Sort Order → {archweb} 20120908-1 mirror list Sort Order)
  • Field changed: Category (Packages: Core → Web Sites)
Fixed in Archweb to sort by English country name rather than ISO country code.
