What sucks is MUR doesn't retry which means you end up with pkgs missing and screwing up dependencies, etc. Why doesn't it retry like urpmi does, or better yet why doesn't it use wget as I know with urpmi using wget it retries until you get in. Is this because MUR uses curl or am I doing something wrong?(I'm just exec'ng drakupdaterobot) I mentioned this problem with curl a while ago.. To summarize it all up: wget: wget will start new ftp session for every file (bad) wget will retry (good) curl: curl will use the same session for every file (good, but still, it starts a new session when doing urpmi.update) curl won't retry (bad) This should really be fixed as it's _ANNOYING_ -- Mvh Per Øyvind Karlsen Delonic Technology Group AS Sysadmin, developer, greasemonkey www.delonic.no - +47 41681061
