It doesn't help, but it *does* make sense. If that were documented in the Jigdo quick-start, that would be helpful. I'll write in and see about having it added as a cautionary note. On Wed, 30 Dec 2015 17:58:20 -0800, you wrote: > >> On Dec 30, 2015, at 1:13 PM, Steve Matzura wrote: >> >> I sti

Yes, and there's a lot of "do what it says, not what you might think it wants you to do" operating in the Windows sphere.

How's that? The URL shown in the results of a search for "Pittsburgh" is: http://debian.mirrors.pair.com/ How did you know to add "debian/" to the end of it? Do I do that for any of those URL's? If that's true, I'd prefer to use a different mirror, slightly closer, listed as: ftp://ftp.

Progress bar of "wget" broken (some terminal bug?)

The download progress bar of "wget" is broken because it prints almost every progress stage in separate line. It's not a bar that updates in a single line. Here's an example: 10%[=> ] 20%[===> ] 30%[
