Not a bug at all! Totally intended.

from 2.x changelog:
Quote
* Enhanced "Download Only" to ignore installed status in appbrowser/tce-load.
I'm not concerning about the installed status, but the fact that the extension I want to download and it's dependences shouldn't be by default overwritten, maybe it would be nice to add a checked box "overwrite" near the download button.
Let's say I want to download wicd, and I already have it's dependences in the optional dir, what the point of downloading all it's 21 deps?

We are still not on the same page, as that is not the behavoir that I observe.

Code: [Select]
tc@dev:/mnt/hda1/tce/optional$ ls -l make.tce*
-rw-r--r--    1 tc       staff       72896 May 23 10:25 make.tce
-rw-r--r--    1 tc       staff          43 May 23 10:25 make.tce.md5.txt
tc@dev:/mnt/hda1/tce/optional$ wget http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/tinycorelinux/2.x/tce/make.tce
Connecting to distro.ibiblio.org (152.46.7.109:80)
wget: can't open 'make.tce': File exists
tc@dev:/mnt/hda1/tce/optional$ wget http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/tinycorelinux/2.x/tce/wicd.tce
Connecting to distro.ibiblio.org (152.46.7.109:80)
wget: can't open 'wicd.tce': File exists

busybox wget does not overwrite existing files.

Yes u are right, I was confused because I was seeing the download windows that were appearing, but actually they were also disappearing to fast to fetch from the ibiblio nederland mirror.
