[jtwdyp]

I updated My desktop without issue around 8 hrs ago... But now that I want to
update my laptop...

Code: Select all

urpmi.update -a
...retrieving failed: rsync failed: exited with 35

Anybody else having trouble?

You may want to show with which repo you're having trouble, otherwise probably nobody can reproduce.
Either have a look at

Code: Select all

urpmq --list-media active

and if that doesn't show the mirror URLs then please show the output of

Code: Select all

grep url /var/cache/urpmi/mirrors.cache | head -5

I gather that it's only my laptop having this problem. :sigh:

Sure, {thanks for the clue on how to extract that info}:

Don't know that it matters, but here's a clue as to which mageia release
etc... my l;aptop's running.

Code: Select all

Mageia release 3 (Official) for x86_64
Kernel 3.10.28-desktop-1.mga3 on a Dual-processor x86_64 / tty3
2013mageia_lap-11 login:


Thing is, I've not changed any of my laptop's repo settings, and urpmi.update used
to work on it... Though I'm not sure if it's been about one month, or more
like two since I did so... But clearly something changed.

Hmmnn, I just noticed, there is just one repo listing rsync in the "grep url" output...

Could it be so simple? Does "distro.ibiblio.org/mageia/distrib/3/x86_64" come in an ftp or http version?

I still don't know which media had the problem, But using the Mageia control center, I "edited" each entry with an update checkmark. changing curl to wget. and now it works...
