Yes, it seems the last weeks have been a bad time for our mirrors/servers :?

Here is what appears to be the pertinent page for the OSL: http://osuosl.org/services/hosting

I would have no idea what to tell them, someone might want to check with them regarding hosting. Just a thought. :idea:

I'm on an x86_64 system. I accidentally ran into this problem earlier. My custom repo's refer to update my packages with i486 packages. Any suggestions or tips to keep my system from bunching up libs?

i486 packages should be excluded in slapt-get via file /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc. Try to add ".*-i486-.*" to this file.
$ grep EXCLUDE /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc
EXCLUDE=^aaa_elflibs,^aaa_base,^devs,^glibc-.*,^kernel-.*,^udev,^rootuser-settings,^zzz-settings,.*-[0-9]+dl$,.*-i486-.*
