I think the problem with the Fedora acceptance is that we'll be constantly chasing a moving target. Every URL we pick will go away 6-12 months later. IOW, while the acceptance test pass today, in 6 months time they'll be failing. IOW, switching to F32 doesn't solve the root cause, it just pushs the problem down the road for 6 months until F32 is EOL and hits the same URL change problem. One way to avoid this is to *not* actually test a current Fedora. Instead intentionally point at an EOL Fedora release whose URL has already moved to the archive site which is long term stable.
