Re: [Cooker] Re: URPMI in the spotlight, was: question on ftp sites

I think having URPMI have a resume capability would rock. AFAIK, it 
doesn't do that now. I am on dialup and when I lose my conn. URPMI fails 
and I actually have to kill the process to get it to stop. I also lose 
whatever has been downloaded so far (/var/cache/urpmi/rpms). As a 
result, I can only use URPMI well at work with ADSL. I also think it 
should ask whether to delete the locally downloaded files on completeion 
or not. If not, then if it were to get cutoff, at least I wouldn't lose 
what I'd downloaded so far.

Maybe I am wrong about URPMI but that would be a great feature.

My .0002c worth.

This could be great indeed, any idea how to improve urpmi/rpmdrake is
welcome as next version will be designed soon now.


Tabs for regular info/ files/ changelog.  Other than rpmdrake is just 
wonderful.

Maybe if I can ever get my Cooker mirror up to date again I can get 
Cooker running again and have more helpful suggestions.
