AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHhhhhhhhh

urpmi is badly messed up. to fix it, i rebuilt the database, that didnt work.. deleted my sources. went to add them again and it says this for contrib, main and every other one.

 

retrieve of source hdlist (or synthesis) failed

no hdlist file found for medium "main"

examining synthesis file [/var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.main.cz]

problem reading synthesis file of medium "main"

unable to update medium "main"

 

etc

i used the easy urpmi thing.

It might just be the mirror your using is busy or down.

Try adding this source from our own server, its contains PLF stuff.

 urpmi.addmedia plf ftp://mandrake-forum.org/pub/PLF/mandrake/9.2 with hdlist.cz

Sometime if the source has too many poeple using it, it will not work. Are you using dial up? I have had problem with dial up being too slow and sometimes it helps to try other souces also.

 

PLF - ftp://ftp.bahcesehir.edu.tr/pub/plf.zarb....rg/mandrake/9.1

main - ftp://ftp.rutgers.edu/pub/mandrake/Mandra...6/Mandrake/RPMS

Texstar - ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distribut...ndrake/9.1/rpms

contribs - ftp://ftp.darenet.dk/pub/linux/mandrake/9....1/contrib/RPMS

updates - ftp://ftp.uasw.edu/pub/os/linux/mandrake/...pdates/9.1/RPMS

 

These are the ones that work for me.
