The missing xml.gz file seem like keep on changing ?

This is default configuration.

You are probably being redirected to a mirror that is not up to date.

As new updates come in, those filenames can change.

In my experience, when this happens just wait a few hours (or even a day), and it usually corrects itself.

I second that advice.

Thanks for sharing

Is there anyway we can fix this quickly from ourside?

Like stick to a fix repo?

Any idea usually how frequent these repos get refreshed ?

Thank you.
