Summary and Info:
When one download aborted, the internal downloader stops after the last package of the repo.

e.g.: "pacman -S python2-sip python2-pyqt rekonq"
(python2 in extra, rekonq in community)
1.Tries python2-sip, aborts the download
2.Downloads python2-pyqt (or aborts here too, doesn't matter)
3.Exits without ever touching the rekonq download

This prohibits unattended downloading ( with -Sw) on spotty internet connections.
The fact that it exits _at all_ without retrying is enough to warrant an external downloader ( curl with infinite retries) for this.
This should block FS#24737 (my new favorite bug report)

Steps to Reproduce:
See above
This task depends upon
