Well, last week I had this prob:

Downloading Packages:

http://archive.cs.uu.nl/mirror/dag.wieers/redhat/el4/en/x86_64/dag/RPMS/perl-IO-Socket-SSL-0.97-1.2.el4.rf.noarch.rpm:

Error Downloading Packages:
  perl-IO-Socket-SSL - 0.97-1.2.el4.rf.noarch: failure:
RPMS/perl-IO-Socket-SSL-0.97-1.2.el4.rf.noarch.rpm from dag: [Errno 256] No
more mirrors to try.

As I'm mirroring DAG (http://archive.cs.uu.nl/mirror/dag.wieers/), I tried
to sync the stuff. I couldn't connect to apt.sw.be for several days.
Now I can, and just refreshed my mirror. The problem remains. There seems
to be wrong RPM's sometimes.

I mailed Dag last week about it, but like before this year (iirc): no answer.
He seems to be very busy or very away, and this DAG stuff seems to me
a bit of a one-man show and thus a bit flaky at times? Too bad, as it is
a great project.

Cheers,
