>Description:
I believe this concerns the following package:
linux_base-fc-4_10  Base set of packages needed in Linux mode (for i386/amd64)

I was using portupgrade to upgrade some of my packages, when I noticed that there are a lot of old mirrors checked for the rpm packages used for fedora core 4.

A small portion:
=> Attempting to fetch from ftp://mirror.web-ster.com/fedora/core/updates/4/i386/.
fetch: ftp://mirror.web-ster.com/fedora/core/updates/4/i386/zlib-1.2.2.2-5.fc4.i386.rpm: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
=> Attempting to fetch from ftp://mirror.web-ster.com/fedora/core/4/SRPMS/.
fetch: ftp://mirror.web-ster.com/fedora/core/4/SRPMS/zlib-1.2.2.2-5.fc4.i386.rpm: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
=> Attempting to fetch from ftp://mirror.web-ster.com/fedora/core/updates/4/SRPMS/.
fetch: ftp://mirror.web-ster.com/fedora/core/updates/4/SRPMS/zlib-1.2.2.2-5.fc4.i386.rpm: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
=> Attempting to fetch from http://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/core/4/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/.
fetch: http://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/core/4/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/zlib-1.2.2.2-5.fc4.i386.rpm: Not Found
=> Attempting to fetch from http://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/core/updates/4/i386/.
fetch: http://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/core/updates/4/i386/zlib-1.2.2.2-5.fc4.i386.rpm: Not Found

Multiply this by 4 or 5 times.

>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
All those mirrors aren't used anymore and they all have a "README" file attached, e.g. ftp://mirror.web-ster.com/fedora/core/updates/README which clearly states that the archive mirror that should be used is:
http://archives.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/linux/
