Hello,
I am taking over a pretty old project based on PTXdist, and I have the
problem that many components are not available online anymore, at least
where PTXdist looks for them (memstat_0.8.tar.gz,
netperf-2.7.0.tar.bz2...). So far, I was able to find these files by
looking on the web, download them manually and put them in src/ to allow
PTXdist to continue, but this is very cumbersome and prevents full
automation.
Is there a way to specify a single custom mirror (HTTP or file based)
for all packages? That would allow to put all files in a central, safe,
future-proof location.
Also, does anyone know where the list of mirrors for the different
packages is?
Thank you in advance for your help!
Regards
Olivier

Hi,
You can adjust the list of mirrors in ptxdist setup -> Source Download.
If none of the URLs listed for a package can be found, ptxdist falls
back to look for the tarball under
https://public.pengutronix.de/mirror/software/ptxdist/temporary-src/ .
In that case, we at Pengutronix have a very extensive collection of
tarballs that were downloaded over the years, and if you have a list of
packages that fail to download (e.g. through "ptxdist -k urlcheck", -k
keeps going after an error), someone at PTX can put it there. I've
already done this for memstat_0.8.tar.gz and netperf-2.7.0.tar.bz2, so
these two should now be downloadable.

At least in the first step. If you once got those tarballs and put it in the
right place, you don't need to fetch them again.

You should keep and backup all the tarballs you need at your site. What we do:
ptxdist setup -> Source Directories
Set a path to a mounted network file system (cifs, nfs, etc.) and do a central
backup of that share.

Not sure what you mean, but if you're looking for specific tarballs, buildroot
has an archive, too:
http://sources.buildroot.org/

If that is not possible then you could create your own mirror and configure
is with "ptxdist setup":
Source Download --->
PTXdist Mirror
Then your own mirror will be used as fallback if the upstream is gone.
If you also set "Only use PTXdist Mirror to download packages", then only
this mirror will be used instead of trying the upstream URL.

For what it's worth, with PTXdist 2019.01.0, I currently get urlcheck
failures for:
libconfig-1.4.9.tar.gz
opkg-utils-0.3.6.tar.bz2
But I have local copies of both of those.

That's one if the reasons why this package is in staging.
> opkg-utils-0.3.6.tar.bz2
This one works for me.
