Bug Description
Binary package hint: freeloader
Ubuntu 6.06.1, Freeloader 0.3
Feeloader reports "DONE" on file that was downloaded only partly. WWW server reported correct file size, it is shown by freedowloader as 238.7MB but it downloaded only about 90MB and reports DONE. It is possible that connection was broken, there was a timeout or something like that; "wget" can handle such network drops without problem.
Reference file, size 238.7MB (I think it is not important, just to have some reference here):
http://
Downloaded with freeloader, reports DONE:
$ ls -lh *iso
-rw-r--r-- 1 oem oem 94M Aug 11 09:25 /home/oem/
From my point of view, freeloader should report ERROR or try to reconnect.
In log file, freeloader reports "unfinished download: privare.iso".
Freeloader did 4 tries to download file, after that it give up.
Yes, I know I have problems with my network conectivity this week but as I reported, wget can handle it and it is very confusing when freeloader software reports OK for download that was not finished.
After "RESTART download" freeloader starts to download from 0. I miss "RESUME" download feature.
I miss a way to get file source URL from Freeloader to the clipboard. When Freeloader fails, I want to use better tool to get file (like wget). I cannot export URL of broken file from Freeloader dialog. I have to found original www page of file and get URL of file from there.
