Bug Description

Prozilla is a download accelerator that opens multiple connections to get the file faster.
Some of the features supported by prozilla are : proxy, ftpsearch, redirection and most important and useful one is resume.
I have been using this unknown app for quite some time now and when a simple search on Synaptic for download accelerators yielded no results, I thought this is a must-have.

This package also comes with a GUI ProzGUI based on Tk, but it was too buggy and I had a bad experience with it.

URL : http://prozilla.genesys.ro/
License : GPLv2
Notes : I am curently using prozilla 2.0.4 which seems to be their last stable version.

prozilla-packaged.tgz Edit (1.1 MiB, application/x-tar)

I tried to contact the upstream developers about taking up the responsibility of maintaining this package, submitting it to Ubuntu, etc., but received no response.
Also, I have already packaged it manually. Uploading relevant files for Review.

Removing the Debian bug link as that bug is closed as inactive for over a year and will not be reopened. If you intend to package this bug for Debian please open a new WNPP bug in their tracker. Thanks!
