I'll give it a try, but it looks like I'll have to patch the whole
downloading thing fairly heavily if I am to make it such that it runs
without human interaction. I figure I'll need to:
- skip things that have already been downloaded
- only download those packages that changed since the last download
- automatically retry mirrors
- collect all exceptional cases that could not be resolved some place
useful and send out an email w/'em
*sigh* I wish there were 40 hours in the day!
