Big files are often broken into multiple downloads, one segment each. For instance, if an rpm is 16Mb, it could be downloaded as 16 x 1Mb segments from 16 different mirrors. It played merry hell with our squid cache until I figured out what was going on.
But the Cisco Ironport firewall gets the full file on it's own and then repackages it for the client as needed. IIRC, the Ironport does not deal correctly with some HTTP directives correctly set by zypper/curl when this is happening. So it breaks things. zypper/curl are not the only victims of the Cisco Ironport bug. Which seems to remain unfixed. At least on the ones used by our company. -- Roger Oberholtzer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
