Using a direct mirror (gwdg) is not a good idea as there is no guarentee that the meta data you get fits to the rpms. On download.o.o we take care of that, but the mirrors sync as they get the data.
Greetings, Stephan
This is why I _did_ try download.o.o to find that it was broken there, too. See second link from above: http://www3.zq1.de/opensuse/video/openSUSE-NET-i586-Build0607c.ogv It is back working, now, though. The direct mirror is mostly to make my caching proxy more effective... but this would not be necessary, if download.o.o redirected to the same (closest) mirror most of the time. However, this appears not to be the case with >5 different mirror hostnames showing up in my squid log. While this is a good thing to spread load for the general public, it has disadvantages in my (caching) case. -- Bernhard M.
