I have a new downloader implemented that would support multiple downloads in parallel but I suffer from the problem that mirrorbrains forwards me from HTTPS to HTTP if I disable the metalink downloads in favour of downloading full files only, curl errors out in that case.
I know we could disable that error but I'm not really sure that this is what we want. With metalink files we get the metalink description over https , which includes all checksums for the several chunks and then can use http connections as well because we can check if we really got what we asked for.
Would be interesting to know here if we can configure mirrorbrains to just redirect to HTTPS if that's what the incoming connection is using.
mirrorbrain does currently not support https. It simply does not know about it.
That explains, can we somehow fix or work around that?
Basically someone would need to do some work on mirrorbrain itself, the code. It would be very nice to support https as well as ipv6. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (4.8°C) member, openSUSE Heroes. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mirror+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: mirror+owner@opensuse.org
