Comment 25 for bug 247351

Well, I also have a two liner for producing mirror lists for smart out of yum's
mirrors URL. But that isn't really scaling well: It would need to run before
every smart update or smart something --update call, e.g. it would have to
become a plugin to make sense. Furthermore the reimporting of mirrors kills the
scores, so it's competing to smart's own mirroring system.

So ATM we don't have a clear path of what is right for the end user. I think
this issue is better presented upstream.

Just for reference the two-liner I use is:

releasever=8; basearch=x86_64
grep -B1 mirrorlist /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora*repo | sed -e's,.*#,,'
-e's@.*mirrorlist=\(.*\)$@wget -nv -O - '\''\1'\'' | grep -v \\# | sed
-e"s,^,smart mirror --add $baseurl ,"@' -e"s,\$releasever,$releasever,g"
-e"s,\$basearch,$basearch,g" | grep -v -- ^-- | sh | sh
