Yes, you are right, the Wiki-Link I supplied is a bit outdated and I will work on fixing this. This has to do with the fact, that this mirroring service went through several hands in our community in the past and now, I was the one who took over rsync.o.o to keep this service alive and running for you. Just to remind you, I'm doing this fixing in my free time - not being paid by anybody for it. No need to be rude or impolite, just a fact, that's it. I read the document several times, but it looks like I didn't change the links to this external website yet, that some of our members put some time ago. This is fixed now and put to an official place on our infrastructure - mirrors.opensuse.org. See here for more info now: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Mirror_infrastructure#rsync_modules Please keep in mind, that rsync.o.o can't offer all modules, as we have limited space in our sponsored data center there. Furthermore, if you want to get access to stage.o.o and want to apply for it, please keep in mind, that you must provide a public facing mirror, to do so. I wish you a nice day and all the best.

Did you actually read the reference document you just invoked, "openSUSE Hero"?

https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Mirror_infrastructure does list buildservice-repos for rsync.opensuse.org

Although obviously it's not really there any more.

The page also sort of says that the buildservice repos are available by rsync from download.opensuse.org, but they are not. It doesn't explicitly say that. The link under the word "repositories" only goes to more http links, but the text on the page says rsync and "modules" and in fact those rsync modules used to exist just as the page describes.

Basically, that document is garbage as a reference. Don't use it in any arguments about who did what wrong.

"It would be great" if you hadn't broken things that people were using.

In any event, yes I have updated my mirror script both to not try to pull from that protocol & path any more, and to handle failure better in the future. Also I will look into this push support that is described there, instead of polling. Assuming that is not also incorrect like half the rest of the page.
