Details

The Release ISO feed https://www.archlinux.org/feeds/releases/ lists https://www.archlinux.org/iso/2020.03.01/archlinux-2020.03.01-x86_64.iso.torrent which does not exist (yet).

Since the feed is updated before the file is available, BitTorrent clients that support automatic downloading will fail to download the ISO. qBittorrent, which I use, shows "The remote content was not found at the server (404)" and unfortunately it will not retry downloading it again.

This happens every month! There is no point in the feed if the linked files don't exist when the feed gets updated.

FWIW the torrent link in https://www.archlinux.org/download/ ( https://www.archlinux.org/releng/releases/2020.03.01/torrent/ ) works.

This issue still remains!

https://www.archlinux.org/feeds/releases/ links to https://www.archlinux.org/iso/2020.07.01/archlinux-2020.07.01-x86_64.iso.torrent which at this moment returns 404.
Meanwhile the https://www.archlinux.org/releng/releases/2020.07.01/torrent/ link in https://www.archlinux.org/download/ works.

The fix ( https://github.com/archlinux/archweb/commit/6914af850db2ca8fb2319b47ac3e70c70d509c0a ) works.

archlinux-2020.08.01-x86_64.iso was downloaded successfully.
