I, for one, have no issue with there being no drpms. their purpose was, as I recall, to save bandwidth. this may still help for busy mirrors, but for most of us bandwidth is no problem.

Firefox is working because it’s downloading the whole rpm, avoiding the issue. setting deltarpm=0 in /etc/yum.conf is an equivalent workaround, and fixed the issue for me. I’d appreciate someone who knows more about how delta rpms work weighing in on what the actual issue is.

[CentOS] http error when updating 7.5 ==> 7.6
Was just doing a (very) belated update on a 7.5 system and ran into this set of errors: Package Arch Version Repository Size Updating: polkit x86_640.112-18.el7_6.1updates168 k polkit-develx86_640.112-18.el7_6.1updates 42 k polkit-docs noarch0.112-18.el7_6.1updates251 k Transaction Summary Upgrade 3 Packages Total download size: 461 k Is this ok [y/d/N]: y Downloading packages: Finishing delta rebuilds of 3 package(s) (461 k) Some delta RPMs failed to download or rebuild.

I then browsed to the mirror shown above and downloaded the files with no trouble. I then did "yum localupdate" for the three downloaded files and they installed just fine. so, anybody know why we're getting the 416 error from yum but not from firefox? a little searching for that error indicates it is some kind of problem on the web host, I think. but it's weird. I don't need help, I'm good, but perhaps someone needs to look at whatever mis-configuration on the host(s) causes that. I originally left the repo file alone so it attempted to use the repolist but every repo failed. I then changed it to use the baseurl but it didn't help. So whatever the problem is, it isn't with just a single host. Fred -- --- Under no circumstances will I ever purchase anything offered to me as the result of an unsolicited e-mail message.
