...parently still can't cope with transparent proxies. I tried the following and got the yum http behind proxy error: Is there an ftp version of the mirrorlist or are those of us that have to use transparent proxies stuck without this new feature?

Hi guys, I'm trying to figure out something wherein excluded repositories for the yum-fastestmirror plugin are still being used by the system. To illustrate: [root at sales ~]# cat /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/fastestmirror.conf [main] enabled=1 verbose=0 socket_timeout=3 hostfilepath=/var/cache/yum/timedhosts.txt maxhostfileage=10 maxthreads=15 #exclude=.gov, facebook exclude=maulvi, .gov.ph, .vn (N...

Thanks, Walter

In another recent thread,[1] someone was having trouble with the yum-plugin-fastestmirror feature, so I suggested he remove it, since it?s just a plugin and should therefore be optional. He reported that it couldn?t be removed due to package dependencies. I investigated further and found that this also affects CentOS 5.11 and CentOS 7.2. (The OP is on CentOS 6.8.) So, I reported it...

Hi, I wanted to add a few notes in the wiki on the fastestmirror plugin on how you can add exclude info in the fastestmirror.conf file. This became important because amazingly ucalgary.ca shows up as a fastestmirror for servers I have in both Nevada and New York. However, the mirror is horribly slow for actual downloads and frequently times out. So, I just wa...

Hello list! I have been instructed to install very specific version numbers of httpd and php on the company web servers.

As I said, I am in favor of having the plugin installed by default. However, making it a dependency of yum is not the only way to do that. It could be moved into the Base package set. Then someone who doesn?t wan...

Hi, are we going to have yum-plugin-fastestmirror on C5? Thanks, David Hrb??

I'm trying to update from the cr repo, but yum-plugin-fastestmirror gets it totally wrong; it selects a mirror in .hk that deliveres bytes per second, and as far as I can tell, most or all of the timedhosts.txt entries are in the Middle or Far East. What's going on? Nobody mirroring cr in other parts of the world? mirrors.ta139.com 99999999999 centos.commu...

All, We are currently testing the yum-utils and yum-utils-plugins in the dev.centos.org repository. The two main plugins that this allows that I think would be great for normal users are protectbase and fastestmirror.

.... What's confusing me is that I have another system (Centos 5.5, 32-bit) that's working fine. Best way to illustrate this is to show the output from the ("bad") 5.3 system when I run 'yum -v list available' [root at servername yum]# yum -v list available Loading "fastestmirror" plugin Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Config time: 0.031 Running "init" handler for "fastestmirror" plugin Yum Version: 3.2.19 COMMAND: yum -v list available Installroot: / Ext Commands: available Setting up Package Sacks Running "postreposetup" handler for &q...
