Hello.
I've noticed that the Fedora mirror ftp://falkor.skane.se/pub/mirrors/fedora/linux/updates/7/x86_64/ (listed on http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=updates-released-f7&arc...) is lacking several packages (e.g. vte-0.16.6-1) that where pushed quite some time ago.
On a related topic, do we have some kind of script that crawls the mirrors on a regular basis and makes sure they are updated?

I'm not sure what the policy is on stale mirrors.

That would be mart of mirrormanager.

Yes, mirrormanager's crawler determines freshness every 12 hours or so. However, it has a bit of a problem... If it can't complete its crawl of a site in an hour (it should take 5 minutes if the site is well-behaved and not overloaded), it doesn't change it's state. So if the crawler can't get through the site for several days, mirrormanager still thinks it's up-to-date. That's a bug in the crawler I need to address.
Thanks, Matt
