But I suspect just repeating

This does not address my problem. Repeatedly trying to download the 65MB new kernel and having at fail at 36%, 43%, 21% ... on and on and on if I can't download the complete RPM then your idea is not of use. The point I am making is that the error i have is cuasing my cable modem to reset intermittently so large downloads fail. I don't know what zypper library uses 'under the hood. The suggestion to get the list and then go get them manual using cURL with restart with restart, with restart with restart until I get the complete RMP seems the only viable one. Oh buqquer, I hate that sort of manual work. Why isn't zypper using cURL under the hood so that this can be automated? No, wait a moment: # ldd /usr/bin/zypper | grep curl libcurl.so.4 => /usr/lib64/libcurl.so.4 (0x00007fa18c6f0000) and # ldd /usr/lib64/libzypp.so.1600 | grep curl libcurl.so.4 => /usr/lib64/libcurl.so.4 (0x00007f522a353000) It *IS* using the curl library. So why can't zypper do a restart? -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
