#12646 Some mirrors are not up-to-date
Closed: Fixed by abompard. Opened by dmanor.

Closed: Fixed
Reopen Issue

In the last 2 days our container images building with centos stream 9 base image (quay.io/centos/centos:stream9) started failing due to mismatch in package versions or missing packages. The error reproduces often (not always), assumed to be due to mirrors which are not up-to-date. Example logs:

podman run -it --pull always quay.io/centos/centos:stream9 bash
Trying to pull quay.io/centos/centos:stream9...

Error:
Problem 1: cannot install the best candidate for the job
- nothing provides nmstate-libs(x86-64) = 2.2.46-1.el9 needed by nmstate-devel-2.2.46-1.el9.x86_64 from crb
Problem 2: cannot install the best candidate for the job
- nothing provides libvirt-libs = 10.10.0-13.el9 needed by libvirt-devel-10.10.0-13.el9.x86_64 from crb
Problem 3: package openssl-devel-1:3.5.0-4.el9.x86_64 from appstream requires openssl-libs(x86-64) = 1:3.5.0-4.el9, but none of the providers can be installed

(try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting packages or '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

I am attaching the /var/log/dnf.librepo.log for the example above.

dnf.librepo.log

I can confirm this and I see that proxy04.fedoraproject.org and proxy12.fedoraproject.org are returning old checksums. Not sure if the mirrorlist processes need to be restarted or if the cache files are not updated.

Ah yeah, they were unreachable so we took them out of the mirrorlist_proxy group, but forgot to add them back now that they're reachable again.

Fixed by https://pagure.io/fedora-infra/ansible/c/4272c8aa773495e9eda5c5c0b0dfd2752e7ea8b2, waiting for the next update-mirrorlist-cache cron.
