Hello,

Since at least approximately 12am (Eastern Standard Time) today, on November 5th, 2013, we started getting HTTP 416 (Requested Range Not Satisfiable) errors on a file located in /6.4/updates/x86_64/repodata/ (as seen in the output of the « yum -v upgrade » command below).

Our mirror is properly synchronized against the master "msync.CentOS.org", and there are no files to be updated.

These errors seem to appear on every tried mirror on any fresh installed x86_64 system, even after a « yum clean all ». The system tries other mirrors, but eventually gives up since all of them respond with the same HTTP error code. For me, it seems that something went very wrong when the .sqlite file was generated. No i386-based installations seem to be affected.
