Hi all,
A week ago or so [1] a change in the pacman-mirrorlist package was
merged, where we removed listings of HTTP based mirror URLs so only
HTTPS based mirrors remain in the newly released pacman-mirrorlist
package. To further clarify, this does not translate to making HTTP
based mirrors unsupported, they are still available on the mirrorlist[2]
endpoint that is used by other mirrorlist fetching tools like reflector.
Best regards,
Arun
