Gofoss.xyz is blocked by my OPNsense Zenarmor rules for also hosting malware. The .cn & .ua are geoblocked by my firewall. Not sure if the others are just offline.
One working mirror is good to go in the end, often happens nowadays that you can not reach mirrors in some parts of this world.
But always good if you report everything, so we will see if a mirror gone south..
Thanks for reporting!
As you can see, those are warnings instead of errors. Nevertheless, we’ll take a look since there may be real issues behind the warnings.
And as Joe mentioned, one working mirror does the job. Note that one can exclude (problematic) mirrors in file /etc/eos-rankmirrors.conf or on the command line.
For what it is worth, I have made a alias that looks like this.
alias er='eos-rankmirrors --ignore=freedif,funami,leitecastro,sjtu,meowsmp,ingk,del2 --timeout=5'
Adding the mirrors to the ignore list (by using their names) stops the warnings and you can edit the list every time you find it is necessary to do so.
Also, if you have 2 or three mirrors that always serves you well, you can edit
endeavouros-mirrorlist to list only them. Here is my endeavouros-mirrorlist
$ cat /etc/pacman.d/endeavouros-mirrorlist

Pudge
eos-rankmirrors supports options --ignore and --prefer, for example
eos-rankmirrors --prefer=gigenet,alpix,moson
and the example from @keescase above.
Using option --prefer requires you already know which mirrors work well for your location.
Option --ignore is useful when you know which mirrors cause trouble and don’t want to waste time and resources with them.
yer this good to know, I have several that drop when internet speed gets to low. Thank you.
