I work on a sage development branch on a machine behind a firewall. That
firewall doesn't allow me to contact any IPs, except if I whitelisted it.
Until recently, that was not a big deal when doing development there, the
servers I needed to contact were
sagemath.org
git.sagemath.org
trac.sagemath.org
pypi.python.org
code.l.google.com (with alias code.google.com)
boxen.math.washington.edu
Since these had relatively stable IPs, I whitelisted their IPs, and
everything worked out well.
Yesterday, I wanted to recompile Sage there in order to have a patchbot
running there, and it killed itself when doing
Attempting to download package patch-2.7.1.tar.gz from mirrors
Downloading the Sage mirror list
So that attempt tried to contact an IP that I hadn't whitelisted. My first
guess is the problem is that boxen has changed its IP (but I cannot do the
whitelisting myself, so I contacted the right person, but I might only get
that IP updated next week...).
But since the output doesn't tell me which server was tried to be contacted
(in particular, I don't know if fixing the boxen IP will solve my problem),
I think it would be nice in general to have a list of servers that are
necessary to contact when compiling sage. Or is that a stupid request?
Thanks, Christian
