Describe what you would like us to do:

I come from seeing here being reported on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1585932
I happen to have suffered from this in fedora 34 and nvwarr's solution of looking at SRPMS/repodata filelists I found the package I was looking for (samba).

so, right now those metalinks over at https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-source-f$releasever&arch=$basearch point to fedora/updates/34/Everything/source/tree/repodata instead of fedora/updates/34/Everything/SRPMS/repodata. so dnf download --source fails as it doesn't find from source, but manually downloading from a mirror that had its directory listing enabled I found the package I was looking for in the SRPMS root

Unfortunately this happens with every release.

@mohanboddu can you remove the wrong directory (source/) so that MirrorManager can correctly detect the SRPMS/ location. Didn't we try to fix this some time ago.

There are still a couple of places the source/ directory exists. I guess all of them are wrong:

# find . -name source
./testing/32/Everything/source
./testing/32/Modular/source
./testing/33/Everything/source
./testing/33/Modular/source
./testing/34/Everything/source
./testing/34/Modular/source
./33/Everything/source
./33/Modular/source
./34/Everything/source
./34/Modular/source

This is dupe for https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issue/9764. Closing the ticket.
