missing poppler and openjpeg packages on mirrors

missing poppler and openjpeg packages on mirrors

[Isaac Hanson]

It seems that some packages have recently gone missing from many
cygwin mirrors.  Specifically, I have noticed all the poppler and
openjpeg packages are gone, while still in the setup.ini and
dependencies of other packages.

setup.exe reports "HTTP status 404 fetching" and lists the URL to the
package, for example,
"http://cygwin.mirror.constant.com/x86_64/release/poppler/libpoppler66/libpoppler66-0.52.0-1.tar.xz"

Any help would be appreciated.

Isaac

As posted earlier on the list:

sourceware.org is having some fallout from a hardware upgrade (see [1]).

Some things got restored from backup.  Work is ongoing.

I don't remember such a post on _this_ list.

Wouldn't it be easier to move the DNS to point sourceware.org to the IP
of sourceware2.org until the mess is fixed?  Once the repair is complete
the DNS can move back to the original IP.

sourceware2 is the pathname for a hot backup, not a hostname.

The reasons for not rolling back to that backup completely are outlined 
in the linked mail.

Thanks for pointing this out.

I've restored x86_64/poppler and openjpeg from backup, so they should 
mirror out again.

I'm working on identifying anything else that's gone missing, but please 
point out anything else you notice...

x86/setup.* x86/*.sum still showing as of the 10th on Canadian mirrors including
unadvertised mirrors and release/package directories updated after expat vary,
also between x86 and x86_64.

https://sourceware.org/lists.html does not include -announce, -apps, -patches.

Um, I guess I meant to write "anything else you notice is missing"...

Anyhow, everything should now be back in place and up to date, once the 
mirrors catch up.

I think this is just a static html page, and I don't think it ever did 
mention those lists, see:
