Is there any way to have this be handled automatically? Not yet, but I'd like to add it. There is an issue about this: https://bugs.cs.uu.nl/browse/NIXPKGS-70 BTW, www.kernel.org says: Additionally, the hostnames www.all.kernel.org, ftp.all.kernel.org, and rsync.all.kernel.org are worldwide round-robins among all four servers. We could use www.all.kernel.org for downloads, but from this description I don't think it returns a geographically close server. Too bad. -- Eelco Dolstra | http://www.cs.uu.nl/~eelco _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.cs.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
