Description
This came up in zulip chat ( https://mariadb.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/118759-general/topic/Recent.20mirror.20changes ) – but I decided to file a bug report since there hasn't been a response yet.
In the past, yum.mariadb.org was used for yum repos.
While it looks like you guys are now suggesting people use dlm.mariadb.com, there are still a lot of servers out there that have repos configured with yum.mariadb.org
There was recently a problem with those mirrors – see MDEV-29305. Although most of the old yum.mariadb.org repos are now functioning again, the original RHEL/CentOS 8 MariaDB 10.6+ ones don't.
https://yum.mariadb.org/10.6/centos8-amd64 // https://mirror.mariadb.org/yum/10.6/centos8-amd64 used to have the packages – but now they just 404. It looks like the folder has moved slightly – and are now located at https://yum.mariadb.org/10.6/centos/8/x86_64
This causes all yum/dnf operations on servers with the old repo location to fail until the system administrator manually updates the file in /etc/yum.repos.d
Would it be possible to make https://mirror.mariadb.org/yum/10.6/centos8-amd64 work again?
Also, are there any plans to provide the repo configuration files via a package that can be maintained via package management systems? For example, MySQL provides the "mysql80-community-release" package which owns the configuration files for the repository.
