Description Elmar Stellnberger (AT/K) 2009-03-04 17:33:56 UTC

Version:           v0.8.5 (using 3.5.10 "release 21.11" , openSUSE )
Compiler:          Target: x86_64-suse-linux
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.27.19-3.2-default

  After two unsucessful attempts to download a dvd image from http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/mirror/opensuse/distribution/11.1/iso/openSUSE-11.1-DVD-i586.iso
I had to switch to wget -c.
  In both cases kget could not continue the download whereas wget -c did not have any problem in continuing a partially downloaded file multiple times. I have recently experienced similar problems with other kget-downloads. I can not remember this having been a problem in former versions of kget.

The actual result is that kget simply starts to download the same file from scratch, i.e. on from the beginnning.
The required result would be to let kget continue the download.

Sorry, but the KDE3-Version of KGet is really unmaintained, please test again on KDE4.
