You are not syncing the lastsync file which is necessary to determine if mirrors are in sync. If you want to save space please only blacklist /other /sources /iso. Don't use a whitelist since we sometimes add temporary repositories.

Added anyway, I hope you'll fix this soon.

Hello again!
Thank you for the instant reply.

Space is no problem for now, so we'd like to support the community by releasing the repository in full specs.
We use the options -rtLqH --whole-file --bwlimit=0 --compress --delete-after --delay-updates --safe-links --max-delete=1000 for the rsync but sometimes it seems that the log (verbose output) hangs a bit, or the full files are not all completed.

If you have any suggestion or idea that would help us on having all settings well, we'd be very pleased.

Please let us know if anything else is needed!
With regards,
on behalf of the team

I'm not sure why you are missing files then. Do you include or exclude anything or are those options you mentioned all that you use?

On my mirror I use this script[1]. Should be easy to adapt and you can remove the http check if you like (it saves ~5MiB of metadata traffic if there are no changes). I have it so that I can run the cronjob more often without incurring too much server load.

Hello again!
Thanx for the reply,

We'll double-(and triple)-check the files again.
As for your question, the above options are just all the options we use on our rsync and we put cron two times / day for now, but we have also done several rsyncs manually as well.

We hope that all would be nice and smooth, please do not hesitate to reach us again if anything comes up as a hint or suggestion!

With kind regards,
on behalf of the team

Hi there! We have a minor update-question:

In the catalogue, it says that we do not offer ISOs (Has ISOs = No). Can this be updated -or- checked if sure is ok? We are quite certain that we have ISOs too!

Thank you again!!
