Package: lftp Version: 3.4.0-1 Severity: important At least in ftp mode, pget is not closing the connections that have already transmitted their share. This leads to absurd waste of bandwitdh when dealing with really huge files (like CD or DVD iso images) if every partition does not transfer at the same rate.
It really needs to partition the file correctly, and when a partition is done transfering, close it. If a connection dealing with a partition times out, restart THAT connection (I think it already does this), etc. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.14.5-debian6+bluesmoke+atapassthru+lm85 Locale: LANG=pt_BR.ISO-8859-1, LC_CTYPE=pt_BR.ISO-8859-1 (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages lftp depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-11 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libexpat1 1.95.8-3 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libgcc1 1:4.0.2-5 GCC support library ii libgcrypt11 1.2.2-1 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libgnutls11 1.0.16-14 GNU TLS library - runtime library ii libgpg-error0 1.1-4 library for common error values an ii libncurses5 5.5-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libreadline5 5.1-5 GNU readline and history libraries ii libtasn1-2 0.2.17-1 Manage ASN.1 structures (runtime) ii netbase 4.24 Basic TCP/IP networking system ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-9 compression library - runtime lftp recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
