Hello, Everyone
If I run "dnf upgrade" with the "metalink" line uncommented in
"/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo", the result is as follows:
[root@afolkey2 ~]# dnf upgrade
rpm.livna.org for 20 - x86_64 3.8 kB/s
| 3.4 kB 00:00
Fedora 20 - x86_64 - VirtualBox 168 kB/s
| 52 kB 00:00
Open source multiplatform video transcoder 28 kB/s | 7.2 kB
00:00
RPM Fusion for Fedora 20 - Free - Updates 1.6 MB/s | 480

RPM Fusion for Fedora 20 - Nonfree - Updates 599 kB/s | 172

Adobe Systems Incorporated 12 kB/s |
1.8 kB 00:00
rpm.livna.org for 20 - x86_64 - Source 6.5 kB/s | 1.9
kB 00:00
google-chrome - 64-bit 49
kB/s | 3.7 kB 00:00
Then, after a few minutes of no apparent activity, the following happens:
Error: Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'updates' from
'https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f20&arch=x86_64':
Cannot download repomd.xml: Cannot download repodata/repomd.xml: All
mirrors were tried
In that example, "dnf upgrade" fails.
If I run "yum upgrade", the result is as follows:
Loaded plugins: auto-update-debuginfo, langpacks
updates/20/x86_64/metalink | 14 kB 00:00:00
updates | 4.9 kB 00:00:00
http://mirror.symnds.com/distributions/fedora/updates/20/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml:
[Errno -1] repomd.xml does not match metalink for updates
Trying other mirror.
After that last message, a similar message is displayed for each mirror.
In that example, "yum update" succeeds.
BUT, it I comment out
"metalink=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f$releasever&arch=$basearch";
in "/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo" and un-comment
"baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/updates/$releasever/$basearch/";,
"dnf upgrade" and "yum update" proceed normally.
Is anyone else having this issue? I have checked this list for the past
few days for this issue, and I have not seen it mentioned.
To sum this up, if I use "baseurl" instead of "metalink" in
"/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo" "dnf upgrade" succeeds.
If I use "metalink" instead of "baseurl" in
"/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo" "dnf upgrade" fails.
Thank you,
