Fedora Repo issues during updates

As I’ve been doing updates the last few days, I’ve noticed a problem with random systems where DNF5 indicates that no updates are available when I know that there are some. I’ve also noticed frequent problems attempting to connect to some of the Fedora mirror sites.

Typical errors are bad checksums and 404 errors.

I’ve tried running dnf5 clean all, but that doesn’t always work, either. Sometimes it takes two or three iterations of this before the caches appear to have been cleaned. Only then does the update work.

The Fedora development lists indicate that there are some problems after a recent datacenter move. The SysAdmins are working on the problem, but until the issues are fixed, you should ensure that updates are performed as expected.

I’ll post here when this problem is resolved.
