An option would be ideal for the "Download From" area of the software sources. Not sure what project to suggest this to. ** Attachment added: "Demo of solution" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/48234089/Download%20From.png -- Apt-p2p needs some promotion https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/533416 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

"In addition, Apt-p2p should have a "fallback after timeout option" where it falls back to the ubuntu repository after waiting for a set amount of time (timeout). This ensures that the packages/repository that the user was trying to download will be downloaded, and will be added to the apt-p2p pool. The next user will then have more chance of downloading the package/repository from apt-p2p. This also prevents users from getting hung on certain repositories where there are not many peers." It is my understanding that it already does this, however I think I found a bug with the system. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-p2p/+bug/578462 -- Apt-p2p needs some promotion https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/533416 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

A similar package/project would be debtorrent (http://wiki.debian.org/DebTorrent), and maybe others.

How do you plan to make apt-p2p more popular? To me it looks like an optional package that some, but not all users will install. ** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- Apt-p2p needs some promotion https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/533416 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
