dnf warns about failed download (for any reason, including unexpected
checksum), but then retry download from another mirror. If all mirrors
fails then package installation will fail. Example message for such
case:

This is probably be true, but especially on longer download lists
impossible to check even for a patient user (and I guess I am not that
patient :) The point is: re-downloads are not triggered immediately, and
until the requested package arrived (or dl fails), but appear instead
"randomly" somewhere later in the output. This happens sometimes several
screen pages later. Some of these re-downloads re-fail and the procedure
reiterates (I refrain from joining hundreds of lines of actual output
here, to deliver proof of that :) My first post was triggered because I
overlooked in this chaotic output the important successful download
line. This was, I admit, my fault. However, I still argue that if there
is some output, then it should be reasonably verifiable, to my point of
view : (almost) unverifiable outputs may also be sent to /dev/null
directly. Don't you agree on that? Bernhard
