Created attachment 208349 [details] mirrors.xml dummy Please add a dummy like in my attachment. That would look like: http://dev.gentoo.org/~idl0r/tmp/mirrorselect.png Users which are still using mirrorselect < 2.0.0 are able to select at least the global distfiles mirror and they'll see the update notification as well. The behaviour in non-interactive mode might be unexpected. idl0r: that attachment doesn't pass XML validation. Please fix that. Also look at where the redirect is done (at the top of mirrors.xml). Created attachment 208382 [details]
mirrors.xml dummy-2
Try this one.
idl0r: still doesn't pass validation - You missed changing a < to >. drop the old authors too. hm, validation was fine here *wonders Does the '>' cause an error? mirrorselect doesn't understand > thats why I wrote '>' instead of > I'm using strict XML validation, that says any <> must either be in a CDATA block or part of a element. Why does mirrorselect fail on the entity? It should be decoding it. It'll ignore it and you'll get "=app-portage/mirrorselect-2.0.0". Created attachment 208587 [details]
mirrors.xml dummy-3
I've removed all authors except one since there must be at least one author element.
The new mirrors.xml to redirect users is now committed. |
