Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 161775
crap behaviour with naming on redownloading
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:11:08 EST
Description of problem: the download feature looks rather untested and has buggy behaviour. it changes the version number if redownloaded source (lol). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.0.4-4 How reproducible: always Steps to repro: 1. download a source tarball of your choice with the following naming scheme: name-version.extension (like wpa_supplicant-0.4.3.tar.gz) 2. after the download is finished redownload the same file to the same directory Actual results: new file is saved as wpa_supplicant-1.4.3.tar.gz (roflmao) Expected results: some same naming of redownloaded files (like e.g. wget does) Additional info: present since fc3 ... makes firefox pretty useless for downloading sources from the web since theres always a danger of fucking up the version tag in a tarball.
