I tried it myself (Linux/Firefox 3.5) The DTA plugin seems to be a bit unreliable. First it was fast, 5 MB/ s, then it said "N/A", then it was slow for the last 90% (switching back to % view from N/A) but after all, the inependently calculated md5 sum matches with the one from the website. Do you remember from which server you have downloaded the metalink file? William has replaced the .tar source file after about 2 hours with a different one. I re-calculated md5 sums and this metafile, but perhaps some mirror played dumb and didn't update the file because it was already there with the same name? If that's really the case -> lesson learned: never never never ever replace a file that has already gone "out" to the world with a different one of the same name :( H -- To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
