It occurs to me, while downloading 234 source packages, that it would be
downright handy to ask fink to automatically try package-defined mirrors
upon a 404 and then descend through other mirrors, etc. I figure as long
as it winds up with an automatic 'give-up' or a required user operation,
at least it would have more success than just trying the single default
mirror selection.
This may not be a high priority because the problem of not finding so
many packages on the mirrors only occurs right after a massive upgrade,
but I was hoping that maybe it wouldn't be too difficult.
Thought I'd mention it while I'm sitting here selecting the default
choice by simply hitting enter over and over.... :-)
