My bad, checking NetAccess.pm again I found a /sw/etc/fink.conf option
named DownloadTimeout that is valid for curl only. It is equivalent to
the --max-time option in curl:
-m/--max-time <seconds>
Maximum time in seconds that you allow the whole
operation to
take. This is useful for preventing your batch jobs
from hang-
ing for hours due to slow networks or links going
down. This
doesn't work fully in win32 systems. See also the --
connect-
timeout option.
The option that cannot be changed via fink.conf, also valid for curl
only, is
--connect-timeout <seconds>
Maximum time in seconds that you allow the
connection to the
server to take. This only limits the connection
phase, once
curl has connected this option is of no more use. See
also the
-m/--max-time option.
