is there a way to poke at the mirror to see the time-stamp of the archive ?
Hi all,
I have spent the better part of the evening trying to use the http
redirector to get an updated index listing with no success.
I get the follow hash sum mismatches -
Reading package lists... Done

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old
ones used instead.
>From the above it seems that probably the singapore mirror has some
old data and for some reason the http re-director still likes to use
that archive.
Here's the latest complete run -

Can something be done or some bug I could follow where the http
re-director is being made more strict or having some more logic
applied to it so that mirrors having an oldish state are not used by
the http-redirector.
I am referencing Julian's answer to this as the possible explanation
shared by him on the same topic about couple of months back .

Look forward to know what can be done.
