DetailsDescription:
Hi, when aborting makepkg during its download, an incomplete file stays in the directory. That allows continuing the download (with curl -C option). But unfortunately, if the server does not support byte-ranges, the next download fails, and all subsequent calls to makepkg will fail with following error: curl: (33) HTTP server doesn't seem to support byte ranges. Cannot resume. I can reproduce the bug with weboob package: cower -d weboob cd weboob makepkg ^C # during file download makepkg # will fail |
This task depends upon

Reason for closing: Won't fix
Additional comments about closing: Not a whole lot we can do here. We optimize for the common case.

Feel free to override the DLAGENT if you know that the server is broken and doesn't support continuation.
