Public bug reported:
I expected that
- Gwget would cease downloading once the full file had been downloaded
- Gwget would create a new download file if a file with the same name already
existed
Gwget kept downloading after it had reported 100% completion:
- reporting a "current size" in excess of the "total size
- the "percentage" returned to 0 %
- the "remaining time" suddenly increased to a huge number, e.g. 1193046
I'm not sure but this may have been caused by changing the mirror for
the file being downloaded. I paused GWget and established a new download
session and once the new session was in progress with the new mirror for
the same file deleted the old session. Gwget did not create a new file
but used the partially downloaded file and the "percentage" appeared to
continue on OK from the 5MB already downloaded using the first mirror..
