While accessing https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:WiktionaryPt.svg from Europe, I see an outdated version of the image. I also see it outdated at 200px. It is correct at 500px though. (the right version is the one that reads "O dicionário livre") Apparently, accessing from America, the image is correct. This makes a discussion about images a complete mess, as people see different images depending on their location. I was told the problem is the purge synch between the US server and the European server. P.S.: the bug title doesn't mean anything to me; Nemo_bis told me to file it like that :D
indeed, https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Sandakan.jpg the same problem.
Ganglia graphs suggest this has been broken since monday - http://ganglia.wikimedia.org/latest/?r=week&cs=&ce=&m=vhtcpd_inpkts_dequeued&s=by+name&c=Upload+caches+esams&h=&host_regex=&max_graphs=0&tab=m&vn=&sh=1&z=small&hc=4
This was indeed broken again, due to some multicast routing bug triggered by link outages and network changes during the last few days. Annoyingly, apparently we still don't have good monitoring for this. Brandon Black has been working on a solution tied into his new vhtcpd HTCP to HTTP relay - I'll check the status of that.
