Problems updating MDK 10.0


There seems to be a problem with the updates for Mandrake 10.0 CE.

I've logged on manually to some of the different ftp archives that Mandrake gives you when you try to add an update source.

The problem seems to be that the updates is supposed to be in a directory under ../mandrake-devel/stable/...

If I do a ls -al in the mandrake-devel directory on any of the FTP sites it shows that stable/ is a link to a directory that should be ../devel/community.

Try to cd into stable and you get a Failed to change directory.

Is this some kind of directory structure change that have failed to propagate or what can the problem be?

Bit of a bummer not being able to update your system

I found the answer to my own question at http://urpmi.org/easyurpmi/index.php where they state: ALL 10.0 MIRRORS ARE BROKEN. Mandrake team is updating them.

I guess it's just a matter of hanging back and wait for it to be resolved then...
