PackageCloud repos are temporarily unavailable #8386

The problem we have with cloudsmith, is that package rotation there happens quite unpredictable and too aggressively. We're installing fixed versions of rabbitmq and Erlang, but it's close to be impossible to keep up with version bumps there, so we end up with always broken gates for stable branches due to it. Is there any way to improve package lifecycle on cloudsmith then, so it could be really used as alternative? |

Also, we've switched to the CloudSmith comminity repo, and it didn't took long to hit an issue with mirrors for Ubuntu:
That is quite annoying thing to catch in CI... |

Team RabbitMQ account on PackageCloud is no longer available
Update from May 28th
PackageCloud have generously unblocked our account for a short period of time (say, a week)
in hoping that we can resolve the root cause. However, we cannot guarantee that it will be the
case, and encourage all users to switch to our own mirrors mentioned in the doc guides.
Original post
Team RabbitMQ's PackageCloud org has been suspended for bureaucratic reasons. I'm afraid we cannot know when the org may be back, if ever. We'd like to continue using PackageCloud as one of the
options but right now, there is no approved way for us to pay for the service. It may take a long
time to resolve.
Please switch to our Cloudsmith mirror for Debian and RPM package repositories.
If and when we have an update on the PackageCloud availability situation, it will be shared in this discussion.
Why Was Not This Pre-announced?
Because the core team was not notified of certain changes that resulted in our PackageCloud account
being deactivated until the last day.
We expected certain changes and learned some lessons from running out of a Cloudsmith traffic quota
in April, both Debian and RPM doc guides have been recommending a mirror that has no traffic quotas and is not subject to the same corporate bureaucracy.
