Bug 236068 – out-of-date Israeli mirror (http://mirror.hamakor.org.il/pub/mirrors/gentoo/) listed in mirrors2.xml

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Mirrors

[Description Master Blaster 2008-08-28 20:56:33 UTC]

The mirrorselect tool lists Hamakor as the Israeli mirror for Gentoo (full URL: http://mirror.hamakor.org.il/pub/mirrors/gentoo/) but according to a post in their website, they are now moving all of their mirrors - including the Gentoo one - the the ISOC-IL website (full URL: http://mirror.isoc.org.il/pub/gentoo/).  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run 'mirrorselect'.

Actual Results:  
Out-of-date Israeli mirror listed by 'mirrorselect'.

Expected Results:  
Up-to-date Israeli mirror listed by 'mirrorselect'.

The current ISOC-IL mirror offers distfiles for both x86 and amd64, while the old Hamakor mirror only provided distfiles for the x86 archtecture. The ISOC-IL mirror also has a snapshot of the portage-tree, accessible through http://mirror.isoc.org.il/pub/gentoo-portage/.

Can you please provide a link to their post? The URL on our website still works fine and the mirror is in sync.

Timestamp on mirror.hamakor.org.il is Mon, 01 Sep 2008 00:00:01 +0000
Current time in UTC is Mon Sep  1 03:52:22 UTC 2008

Sure. You can find the post in their homepage:

I assume that the upstream contact is in the CC field. Options are to either remove the listing, or update it (with an inactive contact). Will contact infra team and decide.

I'm the manager of two Israeli gentoo mirror:

1. mirror.hamakor.org.il (listed at the mirror page).
2. mirror.isoc.org.il (not listed at the mirror page).

Mirror #1 only has the portage tree, as it has an rsync server.
Please update the mirror list to
http://mirror.hamakor.org.il/pub/mirrors/gentoo-portage/
rsync://mirror.hamakor.org.il/gentoo-porage/

Mirror #2 has both http & ftp (but no rsync) at:
http://mirror.isoc.org.il/pub/gentoo/
ftp://mirror.isoc.org.il/gentoo/
http://mirror.isoc.org.il/pub/gentoo-portage/
ftp://mirror.isoc.org.il/gentoo-portage/

The portage trees are not listed on that page. Were you an official gentoo-portage mirror before?

Updated on http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/mirrors2.xml - should be live within a hour. Are you still called "Hamakor FOSS Society" ??

timeout. Open a new bug if anything else needs changing. Thanks.
