MSYS2-packages: repo.msys2.org very slow or unreachable
Seems like upgrading ruby on Windows just became much more complicated…
Anyway, my issues are, when running:
ridk install 1:
Verify integrity of msys2-x86_64-20161025.exe ... Failed

Tried downloading http://repo.msys2.org/distrib/x86_64/msys2-x86_64-20161025.exe manually and I was getting speeds of <1kb/s.
After installing from a different location and running ridk install 2 - many errors such as
error: failed retrieving file 'pacman-5.0.1-4-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz' from repo.msys2.org : transfer closed with 7036272 bytes remaining to read
My internet connection is fine (speedtest around 30mbs and downloads from other sites work fine). Could this be a regional thing, since I am based in Vietnam?

This really needs to be fixed as other build systems that use msys2 are also affected, e.g. vcpkg. I can’t access repo.msys2.org from Hong Kong and Japan either.
You need set mirror .
You can use below if you are near in China
For example:
Add below to
/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.mingw64
