Apart from the missing final /s and inadequate switches (you don't
want a, since it downloads the owner and group and all the
permissions), and the strange address (7.2beta is not a part of
Cooker - it runs in parallel) you might do better and faster by using
the popular Mandrake-devel fast downloading rsync tools downloadable
