next time. If you don't have the patience, try hitting Ctrl+C during the
download. Ideally this should switch to a different mirror (but I'm not
sure if this functionality wasn't removed).
Not happening.
Of course, you can also edit /etc/yum/*.repo and hardcode some fast
mirror near you:
https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/
From looking at these repo files, it's non-obvious how to deviate from
the standard configuration's use of variables.
But that doesn't guard you against outdated mirrors, and doesn't
provide fallback if your chosen mirror is down.
I am having a really tough time trying to update my Fedora 19
today...it's failing on every single mirror.
