[Bug 545242] New: zypper fails to use partially downloaded package when retrying download
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=545242 Summary: zypper fails to use partially downloaded package when retrying download Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Factory Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: libzypp AssignedTo: zypp-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: dave.plater@yahoo.co.uk QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20090909 SUSE/3.5.3-1.4 Firefox/3.0.6, Ant.com Toolbar 1.3 I have just performed a three day zypper dup to factory on a trial dsl line. This has brought to light the failure of zypper to use the partially downloaded package and restart the download from where the connection dropped. I eventually used aria2c to download kernel-desktop direct to the package cache and installed on another console using rpm. I was lucky that the internet connection was better for openoffice. I am attaching three days of logs from aria2c and zypper. I'm also opening a bug for the download in advance feature and I will reference this bug for the logs Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.zypper dup on a poor internet connection 2.Connection drops when downloading a large package 3.When libzypp retries the download it discards the partially downloaded package and starts from the beginning Actual Results: zypper dup takes three days Expected Results: libzypp retries and resumes partial download -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
