Does anybody else have problem installing Trisquel 5.5/6 in the United States? After installing I'm getting rediris something something something error. I get this with both 5 & 6. I didn't pay much attention (actually I didn't do the install personally) and think the mirror might be corrupt from the sounds of the problem. I think it might have said something about corruption and also something about GPG error. It works find from CD. The sources though apparently are different from the live cd than after the install.

Find should be fine above. Also copied the sources.list after the install to replace the installed one and everything works then.

Apparently this mirror did a harakiri

ftp://ftp.rediris.es/mirror/Trisquel.txt

Dunno if they informed anybody about it...

Yea- I was thinking of posting the solution.

We just copied the default sources.list file after installing.

Can we remove it from the list so users don't run into a problem in the future? :)

I updated both
https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/packages-repository
and
http://trisquel.info/en/wiki/mirroring-trisquel
earlier this week to indicate that the mirror no longer exists. So right
now we only have Trisquel and the FSF mirroring packages.

Somebody brought up this issue with the Rediris mirror on 19 February. I
don't know how long it has been down prior to that.

I vaguely remember changing from this to the FSF mirrors quite a while back.

I also hardcode the mirror.fsf.org server in my sources.list

I post this hoping that someone could understand Spanish and would translate it. I could do it tomorrow probably, but right now I'm overloaded with work.

The link I have posted I wrote it myself a few days ago and it explains how to solve your problem. I had the same problem a week ago more or less and I solved it, so I decided to share the solution.
