Hi everyone, We are updating local repos from different mirrors using cobbler reposync. This has been working fine for the longest time but started to fail a few days ago (see below for failure details). I first try to use a different mirror but that didn¹t help. This morning, I modified cobbler to disable the auto-update for the centos/6/extras/i386/ and centos/6/extras/x86_64/ repos. After that the reposync worked like a charm. Is there a problem with the CentOS 6 extras repos? Is someone on this list in charge of them? If not, who should I contact? Thank you in advance for your help.
