Official mirror returning invalid repomd.xml file
yum update fails intermittently on some Amazon Linux servers with a fresh cache with the following error requested datatype primary not available. The problem is limited to servers in Australia.
I've narrowed the problem down to certain servers that are given https://mirror.realcompute.io/epel/6/x86_64/ as the first result when they query http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=epel-6&arch=$basearch for their mirror list. Looking further, this mirror seems to be returning html when metadata is pulled from https://mirror.realcompute.io/epel/6/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml to generate /var/cache/yum/x86_64/latest/epel/repomd.xml.
Should this mirror be temporarily disabled from the fedoraproject mirror list? If so, where can I file an issue to have this removed?
Also, is there a way to ignore this mirror in the meantime?
Running yum clean all works as a temporary solution, but I would rather avoid the problem altogether if possible.
