[jigdo is an exception.] For instance, by default yumdownloader generates no record of which mirror you get upon HTTP 302 [or 303] redirection from the master mirror. In practice you see the ultimate URL only if the connection [attempt] actually times out. This enables the mirror administrator(s) to hide from users in most cases of poor service (missing file, stale file, slower than necessary, ...) -- -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
