amd64.org is down for several days, not able to download amd-ucode-2012-01-17.tar Same problem was reported in bug 399287 Was looking for alternate locations, but found nothing. Fedora mirrors and packages have amd-ucode-2011-01-11.tar http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/repo/pkgs/microcode_ctl/amd-ucode-2011-01-11.tar/aa9ed7a490f37e0d250ca46d0f31682b/amd-ucode-2011-01-11.tar (RMD160 SHA1 SHA256 size are correct) microcode_ctl rpms have /lib/firmware/amd-ucode/microcode_amd.bin: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/microcode_ctl http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/rpminfo?rpmID=2885659 May be licenses/amd-ucode is wrong or obsolete? Or Fedora has a special licensing deal? Also I found this topic: http://fossplanet.com/f10/amd-microcode-updates-80741/ If possible, please add amd-ucode-2012-01-17.tar to mirrors or provide some fallback SRC_URI.
I'll leave it to the licenses team; license/amd-ucode is properly updated and I have no intention to take it upon me to mirror this given the license.
I'd feel uneasy if mirror restriction was lifted for this package. As I read it, the first two paragraphs imply that mirror admins would have to explicitly agree to the license. Maybe you should ask upstream for clarification?
