Cannot update our package - "File has unexpected size"

[andrii-suse]

Hej Joanne,

I believe this happened because we updated the package but kept the same name (we usually don't do this).

Definitely, and the easiest way will be if you update the package again in build.opensuse.org or just submit some noop change, so the package gets next build number.

Will it be possible?

(Scanner in MirrorCache doesn't try to get additional stats from mirrors besides file name at the moment: partially because getting timestamps and sizes is sometimes tricky, partially because there was no time dedicated to it yet).

Hello,

we relaunched the compilation of our package with a newer versio which fixed the problem for this particular mirror. But we found another mirror with problems (see the curl at the end to know the mirror used):

Is this a problem with this specific mirror ?

[andrii-suse]

Sorry I missed the reply back then. Is it still the issue or it resolved by itself? downloadcontent2 is a caching mirror, so (unless file name changed) it can keep old version for some time. But it shouldn't be longer than few hours afair.

[andrii-suse]

It looks something is weird on your side - maybe you can try to clean apt cache, etc.
I don't know why it says

Hashes of expected file:
   - Filesize:57153 [weak]

When the InRelease file has size 68526, i.e.:

> curl -sL download.opensuse.org/mb/repositories/home:/VIFIBnexedi/Debian_10/InRelease | grep Packages.gz

Also "Release file created at: Sun, 08 May 2022" looks wrong / outdated.

Ahhh yes, sorry. It was a problem with apt-cacher-ng. I disabled it totally and now it works. I'm sorry for the noise.

Thanks.

Thomas.
