Description Mathieu IMRAZENE 2003-01-07 16:39:23 UTC

One time, I 'emerged' one package and wget get stucks during the package
download. I had to ^C and start emerge again. 

I think it will be interesting to use the wget timeout feature (-T option) to
restart automaticaly the download when it stalls.

I known I can add the flag in the FETCH command of make.conf, but making it a
defaut could be a good idea.

i have the same problem, but mine does lock up the computer, with a (manual) reboot needed.

This is easy enough to do, but it's been several months since any changes were made to this bug.

Has it just slipped through the cracks, or is this a WONTFIX?

wget will timeout ... ive had it do so for me before ...

so i guess unless we can find a reproducable 'bug' the current portage worksforme
