<br>> IP address in a<br>> list of servers. I found one server which did hot<br>> host the<br>> libgphoto2-2.4.0.tar.bz2 tarball, but could connect<br>> to several others<br>> (and download the tarball) successfully just now as
<br>> a test.<br>> Ideally you would use the "-T" option to wget in<br>> order to download the<br>> tarball. With <a href="http://sourceforge.net">sourceforge.net</a> mirrors you will<br>> sometimes find one that
<br>> does not answer, and "-T" will make sure you will<br>> get reconnected to<br>> another one real soon.<br>> For instance I used:<br>> "wget -T 10<br>><br><a href="http://dl.sourceforge.net/gphoto/libgphoto2-2.4.0.tar.bz2">
http://dl.sourceforge.net/gphoto/libgphoto2-2.4.0.tar.bz2</a>"<br>> for my tests.<br>><br>> The URL you provided is too specific to be<br>> acceptable as a download<br>> URL for SlackBuilds.org.<br>>
