Arch Linux Package Mirror

I finally get a chance to give something back to the Linux community that has been so good to me over the past few years.

I started a package mirror for Arch Linux, sure there are plenty of other ones to chose from. But this is a way I can at least do a little something to give back. Plus, there is one more thing that will hopefully help people out from time to time. I am going to try to never delete any old packages. That way if you ever need to roll back a package but don’t have it locally, there will be a good chance you will be able to find it here.

Just add the following to your /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

for i686:
Server = http://www.schlunix.org/archlinux/$repo/os/i686

or if using x86_64:
Server = http://www.schlunix.org/archlinux/$repo/os/x86_64

Some older i686 packages are still located at http://schlunix.org/arch-linux/i686
