Description:

For a while now, I get an error on one specific mirror. I'm not exactly sure if this is an issue with reflector or an error with the mirror.
The source code documents using the community database for rating mirrors:

> Rate mirrors by timing the download of the community repo's database from
> each one. Keyword arguments are passed through to rate_rsync and rate_http.

In particular, it uses a hardcoded subpath for locating the db:

> DB_SUBPATH = 'community/os/x86_64/community.db'

When rating this particular mirror, a 403 status is returned, as the mirror does not host a community.db file. Upon inspection, I found that the mirror only hosts a tarball: community.db.tar.gz. The same is true for the core, extra, multilib and *-staging and *-testing databases.

I haven't been able to find documentation on what files should be present on a mirror (I'm assuming the file is skipped during sync or deleted afterwards), nor have I been able to find where/how to report issues with mirrors. That's why I'm filing this request here.

Is this an issue with the mirror? If so, how/where should I report it?

Additional info:
* package version(s): reflector 2021.11-5
* mirror: https://mirror.checkdomain.de/archlinux/

Steps to reproduce:
Run reflector with the following options: reflector --protocol https --country Germany --latest 20 --fastest 5 --sort age
