Speaking of the fastest mirror, yum selects the slowest mirror most of the time... i can download fedora isos at 1000/1200 kb/s but yum sometimes

downloads at 5/20/30 kb/s, so i need to yum clean metadata or re-try later, but that is unrelated to anaconda. Is there a specific place for reporting problems/issues
with mirrors or just bugzilla?

Cheers.

We have recently added GeoIP support, which is used for pre-setting
the language & timezone in Anaconda.
It currently uses the Fedora MirrorManager API for getting the
territory code. But that API is primary for getting the fastest
mirror for the given location, not getting the country right.
We already contacted the infrastructure people[1] about setting up a
dedicated GeoIP API.

Thanks for reporting the issue! I've just submitted a patch that should
fix this for review[2].
