Hello everyone,
I noticed that the links in the * -Current.iso files on download.opensuse.org for Leap 15.3 and 15.4 are not correct.
Example: When I download the image https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/iso/openSUSE-Leap-15.3-..., it is saved as openSUSE-Leap-15.3-DVD-x86_64 -Current.iso. The associated openSUSE-Leap-15.3-DVD-x86_64-Current.iso.sha256 assumes a file name of openSUSE-Leap-15.3-2-DVD-x86_64-Build24.5-Media.iso.
Shouldn't the openSUSE-Leap-15.3-DVD-x86_64-Current.iso be linked to openSUSE-Leap-15.3-2-DVD-x86_64-Build24.5-Media.iso?
Greeting Kasimir

It is, but the webserver does not expose that (the rsync server does).

Then why is it right with Tumbleweed Images?
https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-x86_64-... will be forwarded to https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-x86_64-...
and
https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-x86_64-... will be forwarded to https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-x86_64-...
The forwarding is correct for Tumbleweed, but not for Leap 15.(3|4)

(I know it is not obvious, but issues with download.o.o is strictly speaking is not part of buildservice@ list.
It is better to have this config in heroes@ or mirrors@ list, but I may be wrong).
Strict answer to your question: the difference is that Tumbleweed redirects to *Snapshot* first, because of some Apache magic. And Leap redirects to MirrorCache right away. (And MirrorCache has harder time to handle symlinks properly).
But there is a change in MirrorCache behavior planned for this Thursday, so it will never try to serve *Current* and similar symlinks directly, but instead - it will try to always redirect to corresponding Build or Snapshot files.
Let's stay tuned and see behavior on Friday if everything goes well.
