That's what I said: periodic updates.

Well, that doesn't sound like rocket science, and it would be push
versus pull (the latter probably on the side of several clients each
polling in relatively short intervalls thus increasing overall load).

Anyway, I started hacking a small script of my own and ran into the first
two issues.

 1. Why do we have those bogus updates of MD5SUM files on ftp.suse.org 
when none of the underlying contents changed?

 2. And why do we have bogus updates of the ChangeLog file in the top 
level when none of the packages actually changed and no new ChangeLog 
entry was added?

I'm not so sure it would be a good idea. We sure know the moment that all of 
Factory has built and we created a repository out of it. But the rest from 
internal repository to mirrors is done by periodic rsyncs. So something would
need to wrap the rsyncs to parse their output.

So I think the better way would be some bot that polls 3 mirrors and sends out 
a mail if it notices that they a) are in sync and b) changed.

But I don't think this needs to be done somewhere hidden in Nuremberg. This 
can just as well run on someone's DSL line.

At least there is a file named build at top, containing the string factory 
and having the time stamp of the last sync.

Could we get a mailing list set up for that purpose or notifications sent 
to the factory list for the time being (as long as syncs happen as rarely 
as they currently do)?

I don't know how the syncing works in detail, but I'd hope the Autobuild 
guys or someone else have a script that knows when/whether things have 
changed.

It wouldn't change more often than e.g.
http://ftp.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/ARCHIVES.gz

That still doesn't give you a notification.

Simple idea: Can you create a timestamp file like "last_synced" with the 
sync time as content ("date > last_synced") or as file timestamp 
("touch last_synced") ?

Of course, this makes me unable to update to a current FACTORY, so it
would be nice to see it fixed ;-)


This is a bug only on x86-64 - and fixed.  After the next sync it should
be fine again,


Nice, thanks.
I'm seeing this error on an i686 installation, FYI.

BTW, is there any way to get notified when a sync has happened?
