Perhaps I'm being dense today, but I don't follow you. I was assuming the Atom |
12 |
box would hold the distfiles and the Gentoo boxes obtain them from it, one way or |
13 |
another. How are you assuming I'll fetch the files from Out There? I've tried |
14 |
relying on a Squid proxy, but often it doesn't keep the files I want - even after |
15 |
I've raised the file size limit to something like 80MB. |
