It will be in 2.1.x soon, and then will be in 2.2. I guarantee it. It will probably not be in 2.0.x, unless we do a backport (which may be reasonable... it depends on how the crafting of a new urlgrabber goes). There are relevant technical details that go beyond "how do you do it". I know how to do it, but implementing it in the most direct and obvious way would result in a significant duplication of effort and some very not-pretty code. > Second, I saw work been done on the progress indicator of downloads, > when would this make it into production? That should be easy, I think. I don't know what seth's plans are there. I think they're currently in the dailies, so e would expect the next 2.0.x release will have them. > Thrid, package fall over, not yum repo fall over, has any one looked > at that?
