https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=649925 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=649925#c23 --- Comment #23 from Michael Schröder <mls@novell.com> 2011-04-12 15:57:37 UTC --- I think that what happens is that your proxy changes the returned ContentType header from "application/metalink4+xml" to something else. Because of this, the downloader thinks that the returned data is the real file, but in reality it is just the metalink information. Try (assuming curl uses your proxy): curl -v -s -H 'Accept: */*, application/metalink4+xml' http://download.opensuse.org/update/11.4/repodata/0720986a4636756eea1bba8774...
/dev/null
It should print: Content-Type: application/metalink4+xml; charset=UTF-8 (Relying in the content type seemed to be a bad idea, maybe we should add some metalink auto detection.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
