Comment 3 for bug 30415

Revision history for this message

Here is an example of a failure caused by this bug.

I used dupload to upload this file and my network broke during the
upload of the .orig.tar.gz. I restarted the upload and dupload quite
correctly didn't reupload the already successfuly uploaded files. The
result was the error message you will find attached.

I disagree vehemently with describing this bug as a `wishlist item'.
It is quite simply a bug that soyuz pays attention to which FTP
session a file arrives in.
 * It is completely wrong as it violates the basic assumptions
   underlying the FTP protocol (which are, admittedly, not stated in
   the FTP RFC as the authors presumably didn't think anyone would be
   so daft).
 * There is no excuse for this behaviour. As you can see from the
   design sketch I have provided, there are reasonably sane and
   reliable ways of dealing with filename clashes, partial uploads,
   etc.
 * As you can see from the attached message, this behaviour causes
   actual malfunctions.
So there is no excuse for classifying it as `wishlist' !

I will change the bug status shortly.

Ian.
