Multi-mirror #47

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Hi had a quick look at apt-cyg and basically I like it, but it lacks the 
possibility to handle multiple mirrors at once like setup.exe does.

I usually start setup.exe like "setup.exe -K http://cygwinports.org/ports.gpg" 
and then select a normal mirror AND the cygwinports mirror. This way I get the 
packets of both mirrors in one list and can install and update them together.

I'd really like apt-cyg to be able of this too.

One note, setup.exe has a bug with this currently, as e. g. git is in both 
mirrors, but with different versions (normal mirror now newer than 
cygwinports), but only the versions from cygwinports are shown, not the ones 
from the normal mirror. This use-case should be handled properly in apt-cyg if 
the feature gets implemented.
