What happened?

https://conda.anaconda.org/bioconda/rss.xml is not valid RSS or even XML parsable. Its content seems to be a flat collection of <item> elements:

    <item>
  <title>running sync</title>
  <pubDate>03 Jan 2024 17:08:58 UTC</pubDate>
</item><item>
  <title>linux-64:add:bioconductor-bsseq-1.30.0-r41h399db7b_0.tar.bz2</title>
  <pubDate>08 Nov 2021 01:42:55 UTC</pubDate>

</item>
    <item>
  <title>running sync</title>
  <pubDate>09 Nov 2021 03:09:56 UTC</pubDate>
</item>

But conda-forge's RSS looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<rss version="2.0">
  <channel>
    <title>anaconda.org/conda-forge</title>
    <link>https://conda.anaconda.org/conda-forge</link>

Wonder if this shares the same root cause as the Bioconda CDN sync issue: https://github.com/conda/infrastructure/issues/895

jaimergp commented 3 months ago

AFAIU, this is just the CDN backend for bioconda using an older conda-index stack.

Can it get an update please, so that hopefully the sync works again?

johanneskoester commented 3 months ago

The immediate issue seems to be gone, but I would really appreciate to finally get the same stack for the CDN as conda-forge. This was promised several times before actually.
