To not block the GUI, I run trans_commit function in a g_thread and I can't use SIGINT signal. I have no way to correctly stop curl process. I propose to look for a particular value to do it as transaction functions do with TRANS_STATE_INTERRUPTED.Dave Reisner <[email protected]> a écrit :On Aug 25, 2015 7:04 AM, "Guillaume Benoit" <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi, > working on a GUI frontend for libalpm, I noticed that download process lakes for an internal interrupt mechanism.

What problems does this solve? > I'm already working on a patch and I would like to know if you would interested in adding this feature to libalpm. > Regards. Without knowing more details on what you're proposing, its hard to say.
