This is unfortunate fallout from our recent Fedora 26 branching off rawhide. :( We not only branched off Feedora 26 (so an entire pile of f26 things appeared), but we also resigned all rawhide rpms with a new Fedora 27 gpg key (meaning all the rpms changed). Several mitigations moving forward: 0. I'd like to urge everyone to take a look at: https://pagure.io/quick-fedora-mirror and switch to using it. It saves us tons of seek time on the server end, and saves everyone using it tons of wait time for filelists. 1. Our download-ib01.fedoraproject.org has been able to keep up pretty well, and folks could sync against that. 2. I'm considering taking one of our download servers out of dl dns and setting it aside for all the people that have tier1 permissions to use so we can get our valuable tier1 mirrors synced more quickly and then can in turn help other tier2 mirrors. Will look at that this week. Finally while I am sending to these lists, look for a post for me very soon about closing down the mirror-list-d(a)redhat.com and mirror-list(a)redhat.com lists. We would like everyone to subscribe to the mirror-admin(a)lists.fedoraproject.org list and use that moving forward. Thanks, and hope that helps some? Sorry about the connection issues. :( kevin
