Given that we've already had a discussion about how tracking downloads by filename doesn't make any sense, I'm surprised to see it here again. The download is retrieving a file based upon its content, not its destination path in the filesystem. We cache downloaded files, so if /etc/X11/foo.conf, /usr/X11/foo.conf, and /var/cache/foo.conf all have the same content, we will download da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709, but only once. -j _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
