Recent versions of kget 3.5.10 release 21.11 are incapable of resuming (stalled or halted) downloads correctly most of the time. Since KDE3 is no longer maintained in this case a downgrade would be the only option (see http://en.opensuse.org/Kde3). At first the kget programmers have told me that this was a server issue but then I have tried with wget -c which has been working without problems. Unfortunately I can not say which server it was that has been causing download problems since I am now redirected to other local servers following the link at http://software.opensuse.org/ which I think is the better choice (at least the server having caused the download problems was not in the mirror list for Austria; it possibly was suse.lagis.xy - or anything similar; download location: Austria). Nevertheless the download from lagis has had become stalled overduely often perhaps because it was overwhelmed with work. Round robin local mirror selection as now is better. Concerning the Mirrors link that one could possibly not only be placed in the left sidebar but also in the "Get Latest openSUSE" Versions main section of http://software.opensuse.org/ before "License" and "Release Notes". It could be named "select a mirror manually" or somehow similar. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
