Somebody has done this before?
I just discovered that I have aria2c installed, so presumably I tried it at some time (perhaps you mentioned it before?) but I never use it and don't remember anything about it.
Yes, I have mentioned it often, soon after it was invented :-) It is the optimal tool for downloading the openSUSE installation isos. As I said, it talks to the MirrorBrain and selects several optimal mirrors to effectuate the download at max speed. wget instead downloads from a single mirror, and if the one it selects is bad, you are stuck.
I also discovered I have uget-gtk installed. But when I start it and go to the Help menu, pretty much everything I click on takes me to:
"Nothing Found
I don't know that tool. I don't have it installed.
"It seems we can’t find what you’re looking for. Perhaps searching can help."
and indeed clicking on the links on that site to Documentation get the same response. There's no man page installed either. Seems like abandonware?
No idea :-? -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)
