Description Adam Wolk 2019-04-26 09:32:51 UTC

ftp-archive.freebsd.org used to serve files over the http:// protocol in addition to ftp://.

The http protocol is no longer available breaking archive image retrieval on poudriere (https://github.com/freebsd/poudriere/issues/681) and as reported by others (https://twitter.com/bschneider_89/status/1116224453900472321) potentially impacting also iocage users.

I would like to know if this change is intentional and other projects like poudriere need to adjust to it or is it just an unintentional configuration change and the support can be brought back.
