There is no link in the wiki page to any metalink client in rpm form: people are forced to compile their own. I have been pointed to one in the guru repository, but I don't trust it. I don't think many people will use metalink with so many dificulties... we from the mass are not using 10.2 yet.
I did just make this page today, but: http://en.opensuse.org/Metalinks That's the page I plan on pointing people to who are having problems downloading. I agree that at least aria2 should be in the main repository, but I think you underestimate the usage of Guru. The "masses" on SUSE all use Guru, as far as I've seen. It's *the* place to get amarok, for example. But of course that doesn't exclude the hundreds (thousands?) of other packages that are available there. It's only second to packman in terms of popular 3rd-party repositories. I see no reason to distrust it in the case of aria2. Kind thoughts, Francis. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
