Description Stewart Adam 2006-09-18 00:32:23 UTC

Description of problem: (There's no feature request severity, so here it is...)

Sometimes in Yumex a package just gets a bad mirror or lossy connection and
download slowly - A "skip to next mirror" feature would be neat, and it's
possible now that <ctrl c> skips the mirror when downloading a package from the CLI.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yumex-1.1.3-1.0.fc6

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
N/A - The feature is nonexistant
  
Actual results:
M/A

Expected results:
N/A

Sorry, M/A should read N/A

Comment 2 Tim Lauridsen 2006-09-18 07:16:56 UTC

Sounds like a nice idea, i will add it to my Todo List.

Comment 3 Stewart Adam 2006-11-01 03:49:49 UTC

Is it coming in Yumex 1.2? :p

Comment 4 Tim Lauridsen 2006-11-01 20:13:41 UTC

No. it will not be comming in yumex 1.2, 
1.2 will be the stable release of the yumex 1.1.x branch, there will not be
added any new features, just bugfixes & translations. (yumex 1.2 will have the
same features at 1.1.7 has now).
I have startet to work on yumex 1.9, it will be a total rewrite of yumex to make
the code faster and easier to maintain.

Comment 5 Tim Lauridsen 2007-01-30 09:04:26 UTC

The skip mirror feature is implemented in yumex 1.9.2
