Problems downloading the RedHat packages

[Bill Medland]

I am unable to download the RedHat 20041019 packages; any idea why?  (Did they 
get built?)

I can download a SuSE one (well, it at least asks me if I want to save it) but 
for all the Red Hat ones I've tried the mirror page keeps repeatedly coming 
up and it never actually tries to download.

They're all built and uploaded to sourceforge. Unfortunately, it seems
there are some problems with some mirrors, which are not yet updated
(it's been at least 72 hours that the last packages have been uploaded).

Also, since the stats already show 8500+ downloads (if I total all the
packages for RH/FC/WBEL, minus the devel ones), some people are getting
access to the files.

Nevertheless, here's what my results are for
wine-20041019-1fc1winehq.athlon.rpm (other files will probably vary):
Aleron (US): not available
OptusNet (AU): available
UMN (US): not available
Heanet (EU): not available
OVH (EU): not available
Mesh (EU): not available
UNC (US): not available
Voxel (US): not available
Puzzle (EU): available
Belnet (EU): not available

So the availability stats are not pretty, but it is possible to download
it. Also, on each mirror (except Heanet), the page returned instead of
the file said "The mirror you've selected, umn.dl.sourceforge.net does
not currently have the file you requested. (This is an error on our part
which will be fixed)." I don't know how to fix their problems, unless we
begin to host them on winehq.org (which I don't think will anytime
happen soon).

To finish, some fun stats on 20040914 from sf.net:
The total size of completed downloads is a bit over 1.7 TB. This amounts
to about 658 kB/s throughout the month. Counting the binary versions and
the source downloads (and not the devel packages), there were about
94000 downloads from sf.net mirrors for 20040914.

I can't download the RH 20041019 packages either: "The mirror you've
selected, telia.dl.sourceforge.net does not currently have the file you
requested."
