RPM availability

[Cantor, Scott]

The only real mirror I've ever seen of the build service project tree is missing all the non-SUSE repositories because they disappeared from the rsync.opensuse.org tree. There's nothing I can do about it, but I know it affects essentially all the projects there and I'm sure that's why the packages disappeared from the mirror, it's just syncing to what's available to it.

I did a quick test myself to look at unofficial mirroring and I can only get the SUSE repositories. The rest are still there on the download.opensuse.org site, but I don't know if yum can be made to just use it.

That's all I know. Given what it's doing, I'm ok just hosting the files by running an rsync up front when I do packages, at least unless we start hitting issues with bandwidth but I'm not expecting we would. But for the moment I don't have the missing files so it wouldn't help.
