On a similar note (this may have been mentioned before).. would it be possible to add a "retry" button for the popup window that complains about ftp failing? Is VERY frustrating, when updating a dozen or so packages, and part way through this comes up. Being able to wait a few minutes and then retry the download may allow the update to continue if the problem is too many users on the mirror. Would have saved me over an hour today. Also, how hard would it be to remember the state of the + and - boxes? That way when rpmdrake reloads the list of programs, the state is closer to what it was when the packages started downloading. Just my $0.02.. V.
