https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=328822 Summary: Libzypp should retry download after timeout Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: RC 1 Platform: i686 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: libzypp AssignedTo: kkaempf@novell.com ReportedBy: nordhaus@informatik.hu-berlin.de QAContact: kkaempf@novell.com Found By: --- When zypper downloads a file via internet and a timeout occurs it just quits instead of trying again. This is very annoying if you want to download a lot of files (e.g. during update from RC1->RC1+factory). Zypper should automatically retry a least once! If the probability for a timeout is 1% and you are downloading 1000 packages, never retrying will give you 10 timeouts on average that require human intervention. By automatically retrying just one time this can be reduced to 0.1 timeouts on average (=every 10th user sees a timeout). If you retry 2 times it gets down to 1 timeout per 1000 users. Similarly, upon timeout Yast always shows a dialog which asks you if you want to retry. This is useless if you are trying to install something _without_ human supervision, e.g. over night online installation: Yast will wait forever instead of just retrying. Why not make this a dialog that will count down automatically and then retry downloading unless "Cancel" is pressed? We already have this kind of dialog when a reboot is required during installation. Should I open a seperate bug report for Yast? Or do you want to keep both issues in the same bug for better coordination? After all, both are very related. -- 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.

Josef please check with Lada whether to handle this in libzypp directly or only in the applications. Pass on to Lada in the latter case once you're finished with zypper. -- 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.
