Not entirely off topic, the change description states that Fedora
repositories ship with skip_if_unavailable=false but
fedora-cisco-openh264.repo doesn't.

Thanks for the bug report, that explains what I thought was pebcak
when this was introduced and all I could do was disable the plugin.
But I would argue that bug is off topic ;-)

I just hope the DNF team would implement a retry on failed downloads
to not consider a repository unavailable right off the bat especially
when we have a list of mirrors to pick from.
