I just switched back from uninett.no to ftp.sunet.se and noticed the

i586/Mandrake/RPMS2 is a directory at uninett.no, whereas at ftp.sunet.se
i586/Mandrake/RPMS2 - ../../../contrib/i586/
i586/Mandrake/mdkinst/usr/lib/X11 is a directory at uninett.no, whereas
at ftp.sunet.se i586/Mandrake/mdkinst/usr/lib/X11 - ../X11R6/lib/X11
This is a nuisance when changing mirrors and it can lead to huge data
loss if you are using, for example, rsync with the --delete switch.
If asked, I prefer the ftp.sunet.se setup with its links.
Tell me about it..., it has happened to me too many times now. But, the worst
part is when whey also change within the location.
