How about fixing this issue once and for all and mirror all the core/opt distfiles somewhere central and doing wget || in pkgmk, perhaps making the mirror configurable? (Or even better, use a simple user-defined function instead of hardcoding wget + arguments in pkgmk...)
I am sure, you've seen the last message in "[crux-devel] CRUX sources" thread. We can find a few more reasons and re-invent a few more patches (algorithms)... Seems, CRUX's usability suffers sometimes from features unimplemented because of lack of direct interest from main developers. And of coarse, it was expected in such tiny world and I can't blame anybody for that. On the other hand, it could be cowardly called 'simplicity'. Hope, 'Better team organization' will improve the feature requests/patches submission mechanisms. -- Mikhail Kolesnik ICQ: 260259143 IRC: mike_k at freenode/#crux, rusnet/#yalta Jabber: mike_k@jabber.lafox.net NIC handle: MKK83-UANIC
