I've tried to upgrade all of my packages with --upgrade, but get the following message: Downloading http://www3.linuxpackages.net/packages/Slackware-9.1/ libgda 1.0.1-i486-1rob [629K]...Failed to download: HTTP server doesn't seem to support byte ranges. Cannot resume. I've tried unremarking other mirror sites in /etc/slapt-getrc,remarking the problem site and saving, but I keep getting the same message. I don't understand why it is trying to access the remarked site, and why not the others.
