https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=425032 User xenoterracide@gmail.com added comment https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=425032#c2 --- Comment #2 from Caleb Cushing 2008-09-11 10:45:21 MDT --- I know this isn't gentoo, but gentoo does this in portage. the feature is parallel-fetch it might give you some ideas of how it could be implemented. basically it starts downloading when the first package is ready it starts an install and backgrounds the downloading then when it when that install is done it checks to see if the package for the next install has been downloaded if not it tells there has been a lock and cause portage(the package manager) to wait for it to finish downloading. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
