They seem of the same nature to me:
TLDownload::get_file: response error: 500 Can't use...
TLDownload::get_file: response error: 500 Can't locate...
and I have reported a short example of the messages produced..
"Exactly" was to stress that running the same command a second time,
doesn't produce those messages and "tlmgr ... --all" produces those
messages almost for every updating package. Anyway the upgrade was
completed (wget fallback) successfully.
Probably it is a mirror/connection issue. For example, today I have
updated adding --repository DANTEFTPSITE and all worked fine without
those messages..
Ciao,
Angelo.
