* bug#27119: FTP doesn't time out on ftp.ciril.fr @ 2017-05-28 19:53 Ian Dunn 2017-06-01 11:41 ` Ludovic Courtès 0 siblings, 1 reply; 2+ messages in thread From: Ian Dunn @ 2017-05-28 19:53 UTC (permalink / raw) To: 27119 Some of the perl links from cpan aren't up to date, so guix will try to cycle through its mirrors. The problem is that the second one is ftp.ciril.fr, which doesn't time out (or if it does, not for at least 30 minutes). For example, here's the result of "guix build perl-datetime": Starting download of /gnu/store/mc2xj0cga6a25zv2f73hbm44y1kyxa5y-DateTime-1.18.tar.gz From http://mirror.ibcp.fr/pub/CPAN/authors/id/D/DR/DROLSKY/DateTime-1.18.tar.gz...

And it hangs for longer than I've ever let it run (I think the longest I've seen it sit there is 30 minutes). Is there a way to specify the timeout in guix? -- Ian Dunn ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread

I’ve tried from a couple of networks as well as over Tor and I cannot reproduce it. Does it still happen for you? (Specifically I used ‘guix download’ or ‘wget’ with the URL above.) > Is there a way to specify the timeout in guix? The ‘ftp-open’ procedure in (guix ftp-client) does allow you to specify a timeout when opening the connection. In (guix build download), which is what is used when running “guix build perl-datetime”, we specify a default timeout of 10 seconds. This timeout cannot be changed from the ‘guix’ command line though. Thanks for your report, Ludo’. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread
