I have submited libzypp 6.1.0 to Factory. Which makes aria2c the default
transfer backend for http/ftp.

Read about what this means and some new features here:

I wanted to test a little more, but Factory still has 5.11.0 which is
even older than 11.1 updates I think. So be sure to read the post and
learn about ZYPP_ARIA2C=0 in case something breaks or you are hit by any
regression (may be open issues with proxy, ipv6) ;-)

Have fun!

Excellent. Thank you very much Duncan.

The new packages have not arrived in Factory tree yet (probably
building/being published soon); but the buildservice projects zypp:Head
(usable for testing on 11.1) and home_poeml_zypp_11.0 (usable for
testing on 11.0) already got the change.

I have updated http://en.opensuse.org/Libzypp/Failover, which (other
than needing a big cleanup) lists known problems, and explains how to
test on Factory, 11.1, 11.0.
