go to packet source manager
then
in options
then
in general options
then
display the list of the engines to access to sources
there is only curl and wget
Comment 1 Thierry Vignaud 2012-01-23 14:03:12 CET 
Because you didn't install aria2 but choose curl and/or wget

Comment 2 episteme promeneur 2012-01-23 14:10:25 CET 
ok i did not well explain

"aria is not installed by default" is the good definition of problem
with mageia 1 aria is installed by default

is a mageia choice not to use metalink for software management ?
Comment 3 Thierry Vignaud 2012-01-23 14:27:40 CET 
meta-task's /etc/urpmi/prefer.vendor.list default to curl for ages
(literally since Pixel introduced it in 2007)

Status: RESOLVED => REOPENED
Resolution: WONTFIX => (none)
Source RPM: (none) => meta-task

Comment 4 Manuel Hiebel 2012-01-23 14:33:07 CET 
but we have some issue against aria2, so why not keep it if it's works ?
Comment 5 Thierry Vignaud 2012-01-23 21:23:35 CET 
Not a high priority though since urpmi suggests aria2, only people performing minimal install w/o suggest would not have it

Priority: Normal => Low

Comment 6 Manuel Hiebel 2012-03-07 14:01:33 CET 
Seems aria2 is used in the installer and as default by urpmi, do we want really that ? (since there is some warning (bug 2454 ) )

Hi,

This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment.

Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2.

Thanks :)

Cheers,
marja
