[OpenIndiana-discuss] Why OpenIndiana online package search still query something from opensolaris.org?

2021-03-01 Thread cretin1997 via openindiana-discuss
This site here: https://pkg.openindiana.org/hipster/en/index.shtml It's very slow. Sometimes it's even slower because it waiting for something from opensolaris.org. But opensolaris.org was closed, wasn't it? So you query from a non-existing domain, this is the reason why it's that slow.
