Guys,
It is literally like Russian-Roulette updating openSuSE with the mirror pool you get with download.opensuse.org. There is at least 1 maybe more mirrors that give no more than 1-4K/s download speed. (utexas.edu is a know problem repo). This is getting ridiculous. I have had to kill 3-4 updates in the past 2-3 days when I hit one of these mirrors. It would take more than an hour to download an 800k file.
I have searched zypper.log and can't find the problem mirror this time. Where to look? Also, this has been a problem for more than a year, why aren't these mirrors being dropped or fixed? I end up having to hard-code the mirror I want just to get reasonable consistent updates. Something should be done to correct this.
Two questions:
Have you reported it to those who can fix it? (I don't consider this mailing list as "those who can fix it". So I'm not sure what you expect by posting here. Does it help others?)
If you didn't: *do* you know where to report it?
If you did (which is what I assume), and it's not fixed after such a long time (a year!), I think that makes the openSUSE project look pretty bad. :-(

Brother Peter, Yes on all 3. Question: With yast, I could look in the yast log and find the offending repo IP and hostname, can I find that same info if I use zypper? If so where? I've dug through zypper.log but struck out.... and grepped the remainder of /var/log for the package name I was updating when the update hung on the bad repo. Is there anywhere else to look to help narrow it down? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
