And, you can already test http://en.opensuse.org/Libzypp/Failover today, if you want, which is the way to go for the future.
Thanks, Peter
I think this would be a great feature and would greatly help the downloading. I have had so many problems redirecting to some dodgy mirrors that will give a curl error after it has slowly downloaded the file til 100% it made me change all my repositories directly to mirrors, but that has also had some problems (I suspect many are doing that). I already voted for the 2 features mentioned in your other email, but I have a question. I am running 11.1 x86_64. My understanding of the above site is the code is already in there, and all I would need is to set the env var ZYPP_ARIA2C=1, so I created /etc/bash.bashrc.local and added export ZYPP_ARIA2C=1, which does show up in my env as well as root's. When i changed the URL for my repositories back to download.opensuse.org, they went from under repositories to under services, but I thought OK, maybe using aria2c changes that and I really don't care, but when opening Software Management, all the moved repositories failed. Did I misunderstand some step? Thanks for working on this problem, it is growing worse as I assume the mirrors get overloaded. -- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871 running openSUSE 11.1 x86_64 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
