This could easily be combined with a fallback mirror for when URL's are unavailable (think wget $url || wget http://crux.nu/src/`basename $url` in pkgmk)
I'd like to have ability also to specify mirrors by hand. Attached patch woks for me. It is simple and somewhat ugly template, functionality is near to what I want to be implemented. + One line in pkgmk.conf + Mirror maintaining is 50-80 ugly bash lines. Or even less if http://crux.nu/src/ will contain contrib sources, which is unlikely to be true =)
NIH syndrome? ;-)
Seriously, patch like that is written almost three times (two really, but first was somewhat similar). Maybe one of the core developers will review one of the patch and apply it to pkgutils? Otherwise we'll get new mirrors-patches every half year. :-)
So, it is a feature, which people do really want. Nice to know, thanks and sorry. -- Mikhail Kolesnik ICQ: 260259143 IRC: mike_k at freenode/#crux, rusnet/#yalta Jabber: mike_k@jabber.lafox.net NIC handle: MKK83-UANIC
