>+<title>Replacing Automatically Mirrored Files</title>
>+<body>
>+
>+On rare occasions you may need to replace a file that is already mirrored. In this case proceed as
>+follows:
>+<ol>
>+ <li>Put a copy of the new distfile on dev.gentoo.org into /space/distfiles-local</li>
>+ <li>commit the new manifest to CVS</li>
>+ <li>wait</li>
>+</ol>
>+After a few hours a cron job on dev.gentoo.org will fetch the file and replace the version on the
>+mirrors. The file will be automatically removed from /space/distfiles-local after approximately two
>+weeks.
>+

>+More general information about the internals of mirroring can be found on <uri

>+pages</uri>.
