Hi,
I think this question was raised before. But either I failed to find a proper solution or it wasn't presented (or maybe even doesn't exist ATM).
So the context is, there are some mirrors that can't be accessed from some location. In my case — I live in Ukraine — russian & Belarusian server often aren't accessible (routing, not dns) due to rather well known reasons.
But mirrors resolution sometimes redirects to those servers resulting in failing to update.
I've edited some repos baseurl to `ftp.gwdg.de` instead of `download.opensuse.org` but this feels wrong. Also I should help other people to make those changes too.
so instead of *just* replacing "download.opensuse.org" with another as "ft.gwdg.de", add several *specific* mirror sites (example below). and if you continue to have problems with a particular repo, remove "download.opensuse.org" and replace it so it doesn't attempt to access russian & Belarus mirrors.
baseurl=https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ https://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ http://ftp.ussg.iu.edu/linux/opensuse/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ http://distro.ibiblio.org/opensuse/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ http://suse.mobile-central.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/opensuse/tumbleweed/repo/non-oss/ http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/tumbleweed/repo/oss/
