https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=463423 Summary: zypper RFE: parallel downloads, asynchronous download Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: libzypp AssignedTo: zypp-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jengelh@medozas.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer A number of feature requests for zypper: - have it do a configurable number of downloads in parallel, like the smart package manager used to. - provide an option to do all downloads first, then install (like smart) ^ Such operation is warranted when your internet access is time-based. - an option to continue downloading while a package is installed (sometimes this can take longer) in case “download-first-then-install” is not activated. ^ And this in general should make it complete faster on the wall clock. -- 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.
