I?ve filed a bug for that upstream: > > https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1347426I found out some crazy things my setup is private IPv4 behind a NAT-Router (192.168.1.0/24) and as my ISP is still IPv4only I have a IPv6 tunnel (Hurricane Electric) the other end of the tunnel is not in US, it is in Germany(!) any access with port 80 or 443 is blocked except from proxy; and I did the following on squid: tcp_outgoing_address 192.168.1.10 linux-hosts and now after 'yum clean all', I get this when 'yum list kernel' [root at host /]# yum list kernel Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Determining fastest mirrors * base: mirror.inode.at * extras: mirror.inode.at * updates: mirror.inode.at ... and this is what I except ... and the following settings in /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/fastestmirror.conf exclude=.edu,.com,.org include_only=\.at$,\.ch$,\.de$,\.nl$,\.uk$ are placebo, they don't work; because without the "hack setting" in squid, which in fact disables IPv6 for the linux-hosts(!) these two settings result in Determining fastest mirrors * base: mirror.keystealth.org * epel: mirror.math.princeton.edu * extras: mirror.keystealth.org * updates: mirror.keystealth.org Greetings, Walter
