This appears to be a result of running the test in a different environment. When run previously, download.fedoraproject.org would result to an internal Red Hat mirror which was (for the most part) always updated and accurate. With our tests now running in Fedora infrastructure, we are at the mercy of MirrorManager to provide an appropriate mirror. It seems that we rarely get an updated mirror. I have 2 proposed solutions to this problem.
I have also noticed problems with MirrorManager, I get an outdated mirror quite frequently when testing. The question is - how is that possible? Isn't that a bug? Isn't a sole purpose of the MirrorManager to ensure I actually always get an up-to-date mirror? If that's the case, we should simply request a fix for MirrorManager. Does anyone know how it *should* work?
Anyway, for performance reasons, it would be nice to download from our fast internal mirror, sure.
(But I'm still puzzled about the MirrorManager giving outdated mirrors.)
