Here is an announcement posted on mageia-dev mailing-list.
as we have uploaded the new version of mageia-release, some of you may have seen that urpmi sources have been changed to use distrib/1/ instead of distrib/cauldron/ , especially if you didn't touch to the default configuration.
Not all mirrors are in sync, and in fact, most are not proposing the stable release yet ( especially the main mirror ), as we are still working on it.
So urpmi is likely broken for most testers that updated in the last hour.
So if you are affected, you can either
1) wait until everything is working ( likely tomorrow )
2) drop all sources and add again the cauldron one by hand ( urpmi.addmedia --distrib + url )
3) change /etc/mageia-release by hand, replace "1" by "cauldron"
4) install the new mageia-release packages from cauldron :
- Code: Select all
urpmi --replacepkgs http://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/Mageia/distrib/cauldron/i586/media/core/release/mageia-release-common-1-2.mga1.i586.rpm http://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/Mageia/distrib/cauldron/i586/media/core/release/mageia-release-Default-1-2.mga1.i586.rpm
This is for people who want to stay on cauldron after the release.
If you are not affected, just refrain from updating mageia-release until we finish the work on the mirrors.
Things should be working fine once the release is out, so have no fear. As we are busy, do not hesitate to forward for us the mail on forums, identica, others ml, and direct people who have question on -dev.
