Hello Felix,
currently, it looks like Mageia 8 urpmi does not like the Trinity
mirroring system, but I don't know why.
You can workaround by adding the '--wget' argument to each urpmi
command, e.g.
urpmi.addmedia --wget trinity
http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/rpm/mga8/trinity-r14/RPMS/x
86_64 urpmi.addmedia --wget trinity-noarch
http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/rpm/mga8/trinity-r14/RPMS/n
oarch urpmi --wget trinity-desktop
Regards
François

urpmi appears to prefers curl if present. The problem is that curl does not
follow the redirection by default. And redirection is exactly what is the
purpose of redirector in our mirror system. This deficiency in the use of
curl has two solutions:
1. As François said, prefer wget before curl. It seems that it has benefits
not only that redirections are followed by default, but also can better
solve the repetition of transmission in the event of some failures.
2. In the "urpmi.cfg" file, add / set the "curl-options" option to
include "-L". This should ensure that curl will be called with option to
follow the redirection and will work properly with redirector.
Cheers
