Description Ralf Corsepius 2014-11-07 08:00:01 UTC
Description of problem:

# fedup --network 21 --product workstation
...
Could not parse metalink https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=fedora-install-21&arch=x86_64 error was 
No repomd file
...


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fedup-0.9.0-2.fc20.noarch

How reproducible:
Always

Expected results:
Function.

Additional info:
I am not sure about what's supposed to happen in this situation.

From what I see inside of the metalink, my gut feeling tells me fedup likely wants to access
"repo=fedora-workstation-21&arch=x86_64"
instead of 
"repo=fedora-install-21&arch=x86_64"

This is intentional, and it should be fixed before the final release.

See the Common Bugs page for more information:

Well, I fail to understand why this should be intentional?

We're in the final testing phase of a release, which should imply all such issues must be fixed ASAP, IMO.

Interesting answer - Earlier today, I found this seems to have been fixed ?!?

This isn't something I can fix. It's a mirrormanager problem. You should read the Common Bugs page and bug 1160931 if you actually want to understand the problem.

I don't know, maybe it has? I don't control the repos. Talk to rel-eng if you want to know more.

It was fixed two days ago. This is certainly "before the final release".

There's a very dull story behind why it got changed when it got changed, that I don't really feel like telling right now, but there are bits of it around the place in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1160931 and anaconda-devel-list archives.
