Thus spake Bill Fenner (fenner@research.att.com): > updated, but maybe doesn't work so well when it's because the port is > stale (since you will never get a checksum match and you will always > refetch). What means "stale" ? the refetch is mainly for interrupted transfers, the refetch for updated ports is only a side effect. Beside this it'll only refetch the distfile once by default, if it reaches the maximum number of tries (1 per default) it stops.
