A couple of issues with mirroring as R14.0.11 approaches.
(1) Over the last two days a substantial backlog has developed. Only one mirror was up to date last night with the others between 6K and 45K files behind.
(2) Over the last four days we're starting to see files that the secondaries fail to take from the primary. They appear to have pathnames similar to those shown below. The backlog of these is now approaching 600. I'm wondering if the master server rsync filter should block these from coming to the primary mirror.

Hi Mike,
thank you for your excellent monitoring of mirrors!

Yes, in connection with the build of the final packages for R14.0.11 in repository occurs large updates. Dependencies, core modules, libraries and KOffice were built. During this day, I deliberately preserved a quiet state that mirrors get time to complete synchronization. Building applications and meta-packages will follow.

As the updates are now in progress more often, there may occur that the synchronization of the primary mirror is started when the built packages are being published into the repository. During the publication of each package, apt metadata files are continuously updated, including files in the "Packages.diff" directory that is used for faster downloading changes in repository.
During publishing packages, I try to follow the dates of start and end of synchronization to primary mirror to minimize such concurrents. However, sometimes such a situation can occur.
Helped today's quiet state as I hoped?

I think it would be worth filtering .~tmp~ at your end.

In the last 10 hours kuiper has only gone from 44395 files backlog to 44354 files backlog. Looks like a problem on his end. I'll contact him if he doesn't fix it in the next few days.
The others are missing the 546 .~tmp~ files, except for copernicus which is missing the .~tmp~ files plus 9 more.
All in all I'd say we're as up to date as we can be.

This is strange because ".~tmp~" is listed in the patters to be excluded. I tried a while ago to manually create a folder of such a name and the rsync call statement did not show it.

Great, soon I will start publishing applications packages.

Looks like we picked them up over the last few days. They seem to be filtered now but a rsync bug is preventing them from being deleted.
We use --delay-updates but that seems to be blocking their deletion.
I'll do a one-time pass without --delay-updates to get rid of them.
