Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: jigdo-file
Jigdo-lite will try for 20 times to download a file before giving up. If
it times out 20 times next time it will start from scratch rather than
with the % it had already downloaded. When you have a poor connection
and are trying to download 4M files this is very annoying as you can
always get so far but no further :(
apt-get doesn't do this and allows multiple attempts, always continuing
where it left off.
Jigdo-lite saves the files it is downloading to a temporary file cache
which it clears into the image it is building every so often. It appears
that it clears the cache (and doesn't add to the image) if it contains
partial files so that the downloaded data is lost.
** Affects: jigdo (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
