Yum Shibboleths Libraries - 403 Permission Denied

[Marty Goodrich]

Hi Scott,


I may not be able to control which mirror yum uses, but I also connect get any of the RPMs or mirrors directly with wget. I would be happy to just install the RPMs manually if I could get them downloaded.


Which mirror of the packages I provided as broken are you able to connect to without receiving a 403 error?


I am afraid I do not understand what are suggesting I do.


The script at  https://shibboleth.net/downloads/service-provider/latest/RPMS/  keeps telling me to use the the same URL which keeps returning 403 errors. 


Is the fact that I cannot install the libraries from your repo not enough reason to request an issue be resolved? Considering this is your package, is there really no further course of action one of us could take with the package host to at least notify them of the issue?  


You do understand that I am not talking about the main Shibboleth rpm but the every single library rpm located in this folder?:

Thank you for your help improving PCR-360!

Not for me, but it's irrelevant, you can't control what mirror gets used anyway.

I did help, I posted a script [1] to generate the yum repo with a comment about changing the download link to bypass the mirrors, and if that stops working then there is nothing I can do. Now that the OBS is online again I have no reason to think the workaround has stopped working.
