I've fixed the bug in the mirror specification, so this shouldn't happen
again.
I've also restored the updates area from a RedHat mirror (uiarchive),
though this doesn't include the updates announced today (svgalib and
zlib??). These should be updated in one of the next nightly runs.
I'm in the middle of pulling in the 5.2 version from yet another mirror
(cdrom.com) - it should finish in the next 45 minutes or so.
Expect the RedHat piece of linux-rep to be a bit goofy for the next week
or so. The RedHat ftp sites are essentially unusuable because of all of
the traffic. I think RedHat needs to talk to the folks at Walnut Creek
about building a large scale ftp site.
Any problems with linux-rep.fnal.gov should be addressed to me
(djholm@fnal.gov).
