Can you try curl --verbose -L -O --remote-time -g --max-redirs 2 --connect-timeout 30 --max-time 300 http://spamassassin.apache.org/updates/MIRRORED.BY > Then you are likely caught up in the buggy curl we've seen on other > distros. Thanks for helping confirm it. I don't think anything has been confirmed. The problem with curl failing on an http uri redirecting to https is no longer relevant, and presumably curl has successfully fetched the mirror file since the current version of SpamAssassin was installed or there wouldn't be a cached copy.
