Actually. no. The script was written before the plugin appeared.

Yes, did I say anthing different?

Your claim is that developers are already aware of the problems which wouldn't the case where everyone workarounds the problems without reporting them.

Your old 'file a BZ' doesn't
work here (rawhide). Often mirrors or updates are borked for a day or so, then fixed or caught up. But you know that

Rawhide actually is where we need more feedback via bug reports than in general releases. If the mirrors are delayed, it is easy enough to pick one that is more up2date or just use the base location.

You've yet to ans why the 'old' script works, when --s-b fails. Probly not your bailiwick anyhow.

Everybody would know only when bugs are reported. I don't have any magical ability to find out.

An I agree, most things should be BZ'd rather than work'd around. I just don't think this is one for your standard Rahul BZ response. I agree with the OP that this list is a proper place to note daily mirror/--s-b problems... but BZ no. Heck it'll probly be fixed manyana anyhow YMMV

That's what people think and bugs leak into the general releases and everybody is up on arms about lack of testing. Yum skip broken related issues are not just one. I have been reports of many so it is unlikely that all of them will get fixed before even being reported.
