Then it's unlikely that the packages made it out of bodhi and to the
master mirror for all the other mirrors to pick up.  MirrorManager
removes out-of-date mirrors from the rotation every 4 hours or so.  If
you're seeing a mirror that's still being reported by MirrorManager
that's out of date (e.g. yum upgrade regularly fails because that
mirror is behind), please let me know.  Most mirrors update at least
once daily, some many times daily.  They shouldn't be out of date for
more than 24 hours.
