I agree - even when you have a fast connection, it also lets you say "damn, that site is too slow" and interrupt a download and restart it pointing at a different master server. With the current behavior, you won't get a download started up again, you'll get a checksum mismatch as the port finds the wrong file. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
