I like the new rpmdrake (yes I said it !), but I agree with the point above. Btw it seems that the MAIN problem in rpmdrake is when an error occurs during download which seems not to be recognised by rpmdrake which signals only a bad package signature problem (of course the package is zero sized in this case !). So the first question is : Is rpmdrake aware of the download return code, or does he test the minimum requirements for a valid package ( size > 0 ...) ? A temporary solution might be to add a 'RETRY DOWNLOAD' popup (Yes I know one more popup !) each time a package download fails due to a server error (too many users for example). I don't know if this is easy for you to implement. Is people dont like popups then this feature could be an optional advanced one ? -- Pascal Mayyy thhee souuurcee beee with yaaa, Geeekk !
