Yes, my mirror broke, too. A post from Thomas in December confirmed rsync and ftp will be turned off. In truth, though, plain rsync without more sophisticated options won't gain you much in through-put over HTTP because the names of the SRPM files are versioned.
Fwiw, here's the script that I scheduled yesterday to continue mirroring: ------------------ #!/bin/bash SRCDIR=<absolute_path_to_your_repo_containing_the_index_file> LOGDIR=<absolute_path_to_a_log_directory> CURL=<absolute_path_to_your_curl_executable> ts=`date +%Y%m%d` log=$LOGDIR/sync_mirror-$ts.log SITE=http://download.openpkg.org TREE=packages/current/source IDX=00INDEX.rdf.bz2 cd $SRCDIR # Update index echo "============== Updating index ===============" \ >>$log 2>&1 $CURL $SITE/$TREE/$IDX >$IDX # Update repo for node in BASE CORE EVAL PLUS;do echo "=============== Processing node $node ===============" \ >>$log 2>&1 cd $node for FILE in \ `$CURL $SITE/$TREE/$node/ 2>&1 | grep 'class="file"' | \ sed 's/.*td valign//' | sed 's/img .*//' | \ sed 's/.*href//' | sed 's/.*"\(.*\)".*/\1/'`;do PKG=`echo $FILE | sed 's/-[0-9].*//'` oldpkg=`ls $PKG-[0-9]* 2>/dev/null` if [ "$oldpkg" = "" ];then echo "NEW: $PKG" >>$log 2>&1 $CURL $SITE/$TREE/$node/$FILE >$FILE 2>>$log else if [ "$oldpkg" != "$FILE" ];then echo "Updating package $PKG: old: $oldpkg new: $FILE" \ >>$log 2>&1 rm $oldpkg 2>>$log $CURL $SITE/$TREE/$node/$FILE >$FILE 2>>$log else echo No change to package $PKG >>$log 2>&1 fi fi done cd .. done --------------------- _____ From: openpkg-users-ow...@openpkg.org [mailto:openpkg-users-ow...@openpkg.org] On Behalf Of Doug Henry Sent: Friday, January 15, 2010 9:36 AM To: openpkg-users@openpkg.org Subject: rsync access I have been rsync-ing the openpkg current repo for offline use (rsync.openpkg.org/openpkg-ftp/current/SRC/). Looks like rsync access went away for the paths changed, I get the following error now when trying to rsync: rsync: failed to connect to rsync.openpkg.org: Connection refused (111) Is there new information I can get to continue mirroring? Thanks.
