When using either urpmi or rpmdrake to update pkgs if an rpm is listed in the hdlist
but not actually on the server the installation of All selected rpms ca fail.
This happens if using curl, have not seen it if using wget.
Had just run urpmi.update for both ftp.xx and ftp.contrib
[root@localhost charles]# urpmi --curl --auto-select

Installation failed, some files are missing.
You may want to update your urpmi database
[root@localhost charles]# curl: (19) xscavenger-142-3mdk.i586.rpm: No such file or
directory.
Too minor to qualify as a bug?
But definitely an irritation!
