</I>><i> [<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">guillaume at beria</A> trunk]$ LC_ALL=C ./urpmi --no-install --download-dir
</I>><i> ~/tmp/ wine64
</I>><i> Unknown option: download-dir
</I>><i> No package named /home/guillaume/tmp/
</I>An error of mine while attempting to run it. However, the value of this
option is always ignored, in favor of the one generated from the call to
userdir(), which seems to be precisely made for downloading package
without root privileges, according to the comment:
#mdkonline uses userdir because it runs as user
So, do we really need this option, or could we assume than packages
downloaded without root privileges will aways end in
/tmp/.urpmi-<uid>/rpms ?
