Split-up download and extract options into two separate files, because download options are begining to be numerous.

1 # Options specific to downloading packages
7 prompt "Force downloads"
10 Force downloading tarballs, even if one already exists.
12 Usefull if you suspect a tarball to be damaged.
16 prompt "Stop after downloading tarballs"
19 Only download the tarballs. Exit once it done.
21 Usefull to pre-retrieve the tarballs before going off-line.
23 config CONNECT_TIMEOUT
25 prompt "connection timeout"
29 Maximum time in seconds that you allow the connection to the server to take.
31 The scenario is as follows;
32 - some enterprise networks have firewalls that prohibit FTP traffic, while
34 - most download sites have http:// equivalent for the ftp:// URL
35 - after this number of seconds, it is considered that the connection could
36 not be established, and the next URL in the list is tried, until we reach
37 an URL that will go through the firewall, most probably an http:// URL.
39 If you have a slow network, you'd better set this value higher than the default
40 10s. If you know a firewall is blocking connections, but your network is globally
41 fast, you can try to lower this value to jump more quickly to allowed URLs. YMMV.
43 Note that this value applies equally to wget if you have that installed.
45 Of course, you'd be better off to use a proxy, as offered by the following
51 default PROXY_TYPE_NONE
53 config PROXY_TYPE_NONE
57 Select this option if you have a direct connection to the internet,
58 or if you already set the environment adequately.
60 config PROXY_TYPE_HTTP
64 Use an HTTP proxy to connect to to the internet.
65 Only the http and ftp protocols will be tunneled through this
68 Alternatively to setting this option, you can set and export the
69 following variables in your environment:
70 ftp_proxy=http://user:passwd@proxy.server:port/
71 http_proxy=http://user:passwd@proxy.server:port/
72 https_proxy=http://user:passwd@proxy.server:port/
74 # Haha! Here is an interesting feature/bug of mconf!
75 # The following config entries will be shown out-side the
77 # To add a third entry in the choice menu, add it after the
78 # if...endif conditional below, and so on for a fourth entry...
98 endif # USE_HTTP_PROXY
100 config PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS
102 prompt "SOCKS 4/5 proxy (EXPERIMENTAL)"
103 depends on EXPERIMENTAL
105 Use a Socks 4/5 proxy to connect to the internet.
106 All protocols can get tunneled through this kind of proxy (depending
107 on your proxy configuration, some do not allow all protocols, but
108 chances are that protocols needed by crosstool-NG are allowed).
110 Alternatively to setting this option, you can configure tsocks
111 system-wide, and set and export the following variable in your
113 LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/your/tsocks-library.so
115 This option makes use of the tsocks library. You will have to have tsocks
116 installed on your system, of course.
118 If you think you do not know what tsocks is, or how to configure it,
119 chances are that you do not need to set this option.
126 default PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_SYS
128 config PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_SYS
130 prompt "Use system settings"
132 Use that if tsocks is already configured on your system.
134 config PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_AUTO
138 crosstool-NG will attempt to guess what type of SOCKS version
141 config PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_4
145 config PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_5
151 if ! PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_SYS
170 endif # ! PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_SYS
172 endif # USE_SOCKS_PROXY
178 default "none" if PROXY_TYPE_NONE
179 default "http" if PROXY_TYPE_HTTP
180 default "sockssys" if PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_SYS
181 default "socksauto" if PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_AUTO
182 default "socks4" if PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_4
183 default "socks5" if PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_5
