It doesn't really use much of our bandwidth anymore. Unless you stick
?noredirect at the end of the URL (which pacman doesn't do), then it
redirects you to a mirror for package files. The only thing it serves
directly is the .db files (and very new package files that have not
yet been mirrored).
But I'm game for not shipping a static mirrorlist anymore. Why not do
what Arch does?
Wow! You're right. I've found some arch info:
Mirrors:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mirrors
And 'Reflector' package. Script which can retrieve the latest mirror
list from the MirrorStatus web page, filter the most up-to-date mirrors,
sort them by speed and overwrite the file /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Reflector
And I've read that distributions like 'Bridge Linux' (Arch based)
incorporates 'reflector' into the update process by default. 😲 I think
that is what Parabola needs.
Thanks.
