Maybe it’s not set up correctly? Maybe the restart delay 5m is too short? especially for a service that’s supposed to be run every 5 days? … why not make the restart 1h? 1d? so whatever ailment was possessing the mirror in question should be surely gone by then?

An earlier thread, Problems with keyring, noted a problem specifically with andrew@archlinux.org. As described in that thread, this key can be safely removed.
