Yep, exactlky. I was running urpmi two times simultaneously, one
downloading a larger set, and one downloading a small set of files.
When the "small" urpmi finished, no, rahter when it started, it wiped
the directory.
But also running urpmi with same arguments after the urpomi before has
finished, will download files again. Ie, ding:
$ urpmi fetchmail
$ urpmi fetchmail
will download fetchmail two times if you hit CTRL-C after the first
fetchmail has been downloaded.
Yes, I'd call this a bug. Files should only be downloaded if
necessary.
Further, I just did "urpmi /tmp/UP/fetchmail-5.8.11-1mdk.i586.rpm",
which caused urpmi to download fetchmail, instead of using the file in
/tmp/UP. Why is that?
