Please do, and please file it against zchunk when you do, but please
first make sure you've updated to the latest versions if libdnf,
librepo and zchunk-libs.  librepo is supposed to automatically reduce
the number of zchunk byte ranges it requests if there's a failure, so,
if it's not, it's most likely a bug.

It would also be really helpful to see how your proxy responds to a
request for too many byte ranges.  And please make sure to attach
dnf.librepo.log when you file the bug.
