Sure. But what I would expect is, that the whole repodata directory gets updated more or less at once. When synced properly, it contains: *repomd.xml *repomd.xml.asc *repomd.xml.key *(hash)-primary.xml.gz *(hash)-filelists.xml.gz *(hash)-other.xml.gz What I'm seeing is that sometimes the files starting with a hash get deleted, the repomd.xml gets updated and references new hash files. But only after a significant delay (hours/maybe a full day) the new hash files appear. During that time, the repository cannot be used:
# dnf install ... Nightly packages of the Osmocom project (CentOS 8.1 kB/s | 682 B 00:00 Errors during downloading metadata for repository 'network_osmocom_nightly': - Status code: 404 for [1]https://downloads.osmocom.org/obs-mirror/.previous/nightly/CentOS_8/repodata... (IP: ...) - Status code: 404 for [2]https://downloads.osmocom.org/obs-mirror/.previous/nightly/CentOS_8/repodata... (IP: ...) Error: Failed to download metadata for repo 'network_osmocom_nightly': Yum repo downloading error: Downloading error(s):
So I wonder if this can be fixed somehow? Thanks! Best, Oliver
Your post is dated 6 May, but it looks like it was held back for moderation. In the meantime, rsync.o.o is up-to-date, at least for those three files you mentioned.
