Tymestream Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 I have been using urpmi for a while now and ever since I started I have never been able to get the contrib hdzlist to download. It always hangs at retrieving hdzlist... Has anyone else had this problem or know of a solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iphitus Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 Try a different mirror. be aware that the contrib list is very very big compared to the others too, so leave it for an hour, it may not have hung Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I have tried many mirrors and I watch my bandwidth monitor and there is no activity. I will leave it for the remainder of the day.

Guest anon Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 This one seems to be working OK: urpmi.addmedia contrib ftp://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/Mandrakelinux/official/10.1/i586/media/contrib with media_info/hdlist.cz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tymestream Posted January 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 Very strange. I just tried it and, again, no net activity. Just stops at the end of the pasted command. Tried 10+ mirrors - there must be something else that I am missing.Everyother group plf and main etc. work perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
