Description of problem: When I want to use new GCC for testing on an aarch64 platform, I follow the steps in the wiki page https://www.softwarecollections.org/en/scls/rhscl/devtoolset-7/ But it will report an error because the URL is invalid http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/sclo/aarch64/rh/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 - Not Found. No such repository in the sclo folder. Its location starts with "buildlogs" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): CentOS Linux release 7.4.1708 (AltArch) Linux server01.local 4.11.0-45.4.1.el7a.aarch64 #1 SMP Fri Feb 2 17:11:57 UTC 2018 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux How reproducible: Just type the command as the described on the page "https://www.softwarecollections.org/en/scls/rhscl/devtoolset-7/" Steps to Reproduce: 1. sudo yum install centos-release-scl-rh 2. sudo yum-config-manager --enable centos-sclo-rh-testing 3. sudo yum install devtoolset-7 Actual results: Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/sclo/aarch64/rh/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 - Not Found Trying other mirror. To address this issue please refer to the below wiki article https://wiki.centos.org/yum-errors If above article doesn't help to resolve this issue please use https://bugs.centos.org/. One of the configured repositories failed (CentOS-7 - SCLo rh), and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this: 1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem. 2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the packages for the previous distribution release still work). 3. Run the command with the repository temporarily disabled yum --disablerepo=centos-sclo-rh ... 4. Disable the repository permanently, so yum won't use it by default. Yum will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage: yum-config-manager --disable centos-sclo-rh or subscription-manager repos --disable=centos-sclo-rh 5. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable. Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands, so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice compromise: yum-config-manager --save --setopt=centos-sclo-rh.skip_if_unavailable=true failure: repodata/repomd.xml from centos-sclo-rh: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/sclo/aarch64/rh/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 - Not Found Expected results: Succeed to install the devtoolsets Additional info: yum --disablerepo="centos-sclo-rh" install scl-utils-build scl-utils yum --disablerepo="*" --enablerepo="centos-sclo-rh-testing" install devtoolset-7-gcc* These commands - with disable/enable repository - could work properly
=========================================================================================================== repo: centos-sclo-rh =========================================================================================================== [centos-sclo-rh] async = True bandwidth = 0 base_persistdir = /var/lib/yum/repos/aarch64/7 baseurl = http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/sclo/aarch64/rh/ cache = 0 cachedir = /var/cache/yum/aarch64/7/centos-sclo-rh It seems that the repo "centos-sclo-rh" is enabled by default, but currnetly the URL is invalid since the packages are still in the buildlogs. After disable it, all works well. So is it possible to disable this repo by default and when ready, enable it.
Sorry for late reply; I missed this bug report, and I'm not the right person to have a look. Reassigning to Marek.
Unfortunately I don't think I can do anything about this; while I maintain the package itself, this looks like a problem with the repository it's in. But I don't know whom I could assign this to.
Hi Marek, Thanks. Then let's just wait when the official SCLo packages, I hope it will come ASAP. :)
Hopefully this works now.
