Gerrit, such checking IS is in place, or I'd see the same behaviour. You
seem to have identified how to reproduce a bug, and I will be trying to
get the same result - which I can then correct - later today.

I fetched only the setup.ini script at the first run.
Then I moved my contrib & latest directories where all the
stuff is in under the new created subdirectory.  The fresh
downloads went into the right places as I expected.

It happens if you:
1. Have tetex-current installed
2. Have already downloaded tetex-test
3. Have choosen radio button 'Exp' & start another download

Or:
1. Have tetex-test installed
2. Have already downloaded tetex-current
3. Have choosen radio button 'Curr' & start another download

Tetex gets downloaded again and again and again and again...
(tetex-current now two times for me today;)

The second time the first tetex-beta-20001218-1.tar.gz.tmp got clobbered.

To reproduce, just run setup on a repository tree where all the
packages are already at their place, *every* package gets downloaded
again. (E.g. if you have the current version of all packages installed
and already downloaded the test versions of these packages too, then
just click on the 'test' radio button and you'll see the setup.exe
chooses all the uninstalled test packages and loads them down).

There is no checking whether the package with the correct size is
already there.

Hmmm, I'm not sure...
I tried the first time today.
At first I let setup just fetch the setup.ini files from
several mirrors to see this feature.  Nice;)
I moved my repository below my favorite mirror dir.

Now I got mean and fetched some packages (category test), download only.
It offers me automake-1.6 and tetex and some others.
I didn't changed the selection and setup.exe fetched the packages.
Now I looked into the tetex directory: please see the attached
screenshot.  tetex-beta-20001218-4 was fetched though I have
the package already there!  Note that I have already fetched it
some weeks ago but never installed it.
Now I have two packages there:
tetex-beta-20001218-4.tar.bz2.tmp and
tetex-beta-20001218-4.tar.bz2

Is there a chance that I can tell setup.exe what is already present
in the repository?  Shouldn't be there some little tool which parses
the repository and makes a list of all locally present packages?

don't worry -- I saw the invisible  tags.  I won't do anything 
rash.

I think that waiting a day or two is essential, because otherwise
Chuck's packages will cause havoc. I forgot to avoid the use of sarcasm
- sorry.

Lol. Yeah, we should look at that. I've some ideas about random rude
names we could add! Seriously though, I don't' recall bug reports, just
many 'is this intentional', and 'will it use the old stuff', and 'how do
I downgrade'.

Shouldn't we wait a day or two and let the new setup.exe work its
way through the system?  I thought I saw one problem mentioned today
but I wasn't sure if it was the new setup.exe or the old.

And then there's that twice (thrice?) reported bug where setup.exe
"accidentally" create a separate mirror directory.  Don't you hate it
when your code creates additional directory levels without your consent?
