This applies to urpmi as well.  The only way to keep already downloaded 
files is to interrupt (ctrl-c) when asked if want to use --nodeps.  If 
it fails, it should ask whether to keep the downloaded files.

Also I have noticed if in one window I am doing urpmi and it is 
downloading (like cooker --auto-select), and in another window I decide 
to install another unreleated package with urpmi, the cache will be 
cleared and the first big urpmi download will loose already downloaded 
files.

It would be nice to remove this auto deletion of all cached files, and 
ask in the first case, and add --clear-cache option to clear if it gets 
too big.
