Re: [expert] What is the matter with Mandrake urpmi sources?
I'm getting the same with nearly every site that has club stuff on it, the only one which tries to download is the greek one, but that also fails. I guess its the amount of downloads of 9.2 is clogging the system. Before 9.2 was released I found the site at canterbury in the UK very reliable and quick.

From: Praedor Atrebates [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yeah, OK...but then, MandrakeClub happily sends you to the download page for src.rpms and includes (useless) urpmi instructions for each link. In any case, I then tried looking for kernel-source-tmb in MandrakeClub and found reference to it in Mandrake Cooker. I went to the download page, used the urpmi source link and then tried to install kernel-source, expecting a list to come up with the -tmb kernel among them. Nope. I got a 2.4.21-0.25mdk kernel and a 2.4.22 multimedia kernel. OK, I give up. So I decided to download the 2.4.22 multimedia kernel source and...boop! It doesn't exist. This inspite of the fact that I just updated ALL my urpmi sources immediately prior to this attempt.

Re: [expert] What is the matter with Mandrake urpmi sources?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I understand that a kernel-source rpm is not the same as a kernel.src rpm. What I do not understand is that I have just updated all my sources, including contribs, AND I added the urpmi sources indicated for the kernel-source-tmb kernel on the MandrakeClub download pages. I then ran urpmi kernel-source and expected urpmi to provide a list of rpms containing kernel-source - because when I tried to download the kernel-source-tmb rpm itself from the link on the download page at MandrakeClub, it failed and said it doesn't exist. I assumed (after trying a half dozen other provided links to sources) that perhaps the kernel-source-tmb version had changed and instead of trying to download a specific (broken) kernel-source-tmb rpm, I would let urpmi select the proper rpm for me AFTER I updated all my sources AND added a new one from the MandrakeClub urpmi setup link. I DID get a short list of available kernel-source rpms but they did not include kernel-source-tmb (this inspite of the fact that I added the urpmi source from MandrakeClub that explicitly pointed to the site that supposedly contained it). I ended up going to the mandrake devel cooker site and manually downloading the kernel-source-tmb rpm there. The MandrakeClub links and urpmi instructions are erroneous.

Something about the md5 checksum on the hdlist being incorrect. In order to update the source, it had to be deleted and re-added. I have run into this myself. Once I updated my Cooker mirror to final and updated my sources, I noticed that several things that I knew had newer packages were not being updated.
