Hello,
Can you try to add following option to /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg:
{
curl-options: -L
}
Then try again.
unfortunately did not help...
[root@localhost ~]# tail /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg
{
curl-options: -L
}
[root@localhost ~]# urpmi.removemedia trinity trinity-noarch
urpmi.addmedia trinity http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/rpm/mga8/trinity-r14/RPMS/x86_64
urpmi.addmedia trinity-noarch http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/rpm/mga8/trinity-r14/RPMS/noarch

Usually, the urpmi options are located at the top of file /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg
By default, there is an empty section like this:
{
}
This is in this existing section where the curl-options should go.
Please make sure that you have set options in the top section of the file, not elsewehere.
Additionnaly, you can also add option:
downloader: curl
The top of urpmi.cfg then looks like this:
{
curl-options: -L
downloader: curl
}
Indeed, I noticed that there is default only a "empty top section" in urpmi.cfg.
Adding the following:
{
downloader: curl
curl-options: -L
}
Now the instructions for MAGEIA as found on:
https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Mageia_Trinity_Repository_Installation_Instructions
do work. Thanks!
FYI:
Did delete /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg
Started drakconf
Choose configure media sources for install and update,
Click on "Add"
drakconf will shows a popup about contacting Mageia for the mirror list.
After a few moments, a fresh new urpmi.cfg is written by drakconf.
The fresh new urpmi.cfg does again contain a "empty top section",
so a fresh new urpmi.cfg will again result in the MD5 error.
