Hi folks,
I noticed that when syncing the opensuse-full-with-factory rsync modules from stage.opensuse.org, the "update" directory contains the following symlinks.
update/tumbleweed -> /srv/ftp/pub/opensuse/repositories/openSUSE:/Factory:/Update/standard
update/tumbleweed-non-oss -> tumbleweed
The path /srv/ftp/pub/opensuse/repositories/openSUSE:/Factory:/Update/standard does not exist on the system and therefore update/tumbleweed becomes unavailable in the mirror.
I guess, you would need to rsync rsync://stage.opensuse.org/opensuse-full-really-everything-including-repositories/opensuse/repositories/openSUSE:/Factory:/Update/standard/ into the right place (or tweak the symlink) However most of the time, that repo is empty, because 99+% of Tumbleweed updates go through the main repo. So we do not need many mirrors of it because download.o.o can handle the little traffic itself. Do you think, it is worth the effort to shift it on stage.o.o to be available in the factory module with relative symlinks that just work? Ciao Bernhard M.

Thanks for the suggestion. Did that. Now, it's available on the Mauritian repo https://mirror.opensuse.mu/update/tumbleweed.

I'm still trying to get the hang of it and setting up a proper mirror for local users. Even if a small portion of update lands there, wouldn't want to miss it or have users add the tw/update repo from download.o.o.

For people familiar with openSUSE repos and mirrors I think your suggestion to sync the content to the right place will be just fine. However, for new mirror admins it'll greatly help if it was available in the factory module. Regards, Ish Sookun
