Selecting individual mirrors causes mirrorlist issue #2

Closed Torxed closed 4 years ago

Torxed commented 4 years ago

Instead of writing a filter string such as SE, users might select individual mirrors from the mirror-list below. This causes the backend to do a wget https://www.archlinux.org/mirrorlist/?country=&protocol=https&ip_version=4&ip_version=6&use_mirror_status=on -O /root/mirrorlist and then move that to /etc/mirrorlist.

A quick navigation to https://www.archlinux.org/mirrorlist/?country=&protocol=https&ip_version=4&ip_version=6&use_mirror_status=on will result in a HTML page, not an actual mirror-list. which causes /etc/mirrorlist to become the source of the HTML page and not a final mirrorlist.

Investigate why and weed this out.

I also added some logic to enable a region to be specified (or not) while at the same time cherry-picking certain individual mirrors to be appended ontop of the region selection in commit c286e8c.
