Bug 58898 – freenet should download the packed seednodes

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description zhcnmccmzhdvfevooo 2004-07-30 07:58:48 UTC]

I think freenet should download the seednodes packed from the freenet server, when calling the "config" via the ebuild command.
At the moment the file is packed 900kb and unpacked 21 MB (!). I think this is real big diffrence for the user and the freenet server.

I suggest a Patch like this:
