* TODO:
* - send expected checksum to the mirror method so that
some checking/falling back can be done here already
- * - keep the mirror file around in /var/lib/apt/mirrors
- * can't be put into lists/ because of the listclearer
- * cleanup by time (mtime relative to the other mtimes)
- * - use a TTL time the mirror file is fetched again (6h?)
+ use pkgAcquire::Custom600Header() for this? what about gpgv
+ failures?
+ #OR#
+ * - implement it at the pkgAcquire::Item::Failed() level but then
+ we need to send back what uri exactly was failing
+
* - deal with runing as non-root because we can't write to the lists
dir then -> use the cached mirror file
* - better method to download than having a pkgAcquire interface here
- * - magicmarker is (a bit) evil

+ clean and read the sources.list and use the GetURI() method to find
+ the prefix?
* - testing :)
