Comment 20 for bug 293586

That's rather unfortunate that no one is going to fix the actual bug. I cannot use a real mirror for numerous reasons. First, all the systems that are performing the 8.10 install are behind a firewall with no internet access. Additionally, these systems are used for my employer's regression testing, and are reloaded from bare metal several hundred times/month. Even if they had access to a 'real' mirror, the increase in OS install time would be quite significant, and therefore unacceptable. Support for 8.10 had been put on hold as a result of this bug. Since no actual fix is going to be forthcoming, it looks like we're going to have to drop 8.10 altogether.
