Description

Hi,

The discussion in
https://github.com/rpm-software-management/mock/issues/553
showed that we have broken repomd.xml.metalink files. They must not
contain a list of mirrors otherwise clients using it may get
redirected to stale mirrors.

Also, the mentioned mirror looks stale, so maybe something should be
done about it.

So I switched all the Mock configs to use the download redirector, since MirrorBrain can't be configured to do the right thing for repositories, and now the situation is worse.

Uhm, do they block certain IPs? The URL works fine for me using curl?

Hi there - and a Happy and Healthy 2022!

I'm currently closing old tickets which did not see much change.
If the main concern still exists and should be handled, please re-open by just replying to this Email.

Thanks in advance,
Lars
