[pacman-dev] download code in pacman

hi is there any reason why the download code is in pacman and not in the library? yes, i know, this way the frontends are not forced to use libftp, for example they can use curl, if you want. but i think this is not the same situation as the list handling functions / GList (ie. at a gtk frontend) imho placing the old download code in pacman, and not in the library is a disadvantage, and not an advantage or we could allow to use NULL as the download cb function pointer, and then use the our own download code opinions? if i would implement this then theoratically you wouldn't have objections? udv / greetings, VMiklos -- Developer of Frugalware Linux, to make things frugal - http://frugalware.org
