Connection timeout errors due to restrictive wget settings

[Stefan Rotsch <linux stefanrotsch de>]

Hi all,

With GARNOME 0.29.1, I get lots of connection timeout errors like this:

---
Resolving ftp.gnome.org... done.
Connecting to ftp.gnome.org[130.239.18.137]:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK
Length: 1,631,251 [application/x-tar]
 
 7% [=>                                   ] 120,324        5.04K/s   
ETA 04:52
 
15:10:15 (5.04 KB/s) - Read error at byte 120324/1631251 (Connection
timed out). Retrying.
---

This happens again and again every ~150-200kb.

After editing gar.lib.mk and increasing wget -T 10 to wget -T 30,
everything works fine, so: is such a restrictive timeout really
necessary, or couldn't 30s or even 60s be the default?

Should I file a bug about this?
