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.
19 Say 'Y' here if you need to use a proxy to connect to the internet.
21 You can then choose between an HTTP or a SOCKS 4/5 proxy.
29 config PROXY_TYPE_HTTP
33 Use an HTTP proxy to connect to to the internet.
34 Only the http and ftp protocols will be tunneled through this
37 Alternatively to setting this option, you can set and export the
38 following variables in your environment:
39 ftp_proxy=http://user:passwd@proxy.server:port/
40 http_proxy=http://user:passwd@proxy.server:port/
41 https_proxy=http://user:passwd@proxy.server:port/
43 # Haha! Here is an interesting feature/bug of mconf!
44 # The following config entries will be shown out-side the
46 # To add a third entry in the choice menu, add it after the
47 # if...endif conditional below, and so on for a fourth entry...
67 endif # USE_HTTP_PROXY
69 config PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS
71 prompt "SOCKS 4/5 proxy"
73 Use a Socks 4/5 proxy to connect to the internet.
74 All protocols can get tunneled through this kind of proxy (your
75 proxy configuration may not allow all protocols, but chances are
76 that protocols needed by crosstool-NG are allowed).
78 Alternatively to setting this option, you can configure tsocks
79 system-wide, and set and export the following variable in your
81 LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/your/tsocks-library.so
83 This option makes use of the tsocks library. You will have to have tsocks
84 installed on your system, of course.
86 If you think you do not know what tsocks is, or how to configure it,
87 chances are that you do not need to set this option.
94 default PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_SYS
96 config PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_SYS
98 prompt "Use system settings"
100 Use that if tsocks is already configured on your system.
102 config PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_AUTO
106 crosstool-NG will attempt to guess what type of SOCKS version
109 config PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_4
113 config PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_5
119 if ! PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_SYS
138 endif # ! PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_SYS
140 endif # USE_SOCKS_PROXY
148 default "none" if ! USE_PROXY
149 default "http" if PROXY_TYPE_HTTP
150 default "sockssys" if PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_SYS
151 default "socksauto" if PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_AUTO
152 default "socks4" if PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_4
153 default "socks5" if PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_5
155 menuconfig USE_LAN_MIRROR
157 prompt "Use LAN mirror"
160 If you have a machine on your LAN that mirrors some of the needed
161 tarballs, you can say 'Y' here, and configure adequate values in
162 the following options.
164 Tarballs will be be preferably fetched from the LAN mirror, and if
165 not found there, standard places will be searched for.
167 Obviously, nothing prevents you from using a mirror that is in fact
168 *not* on your LAN, for example on another subnet of your company's
169 network, or a mirror on the Internet.
173 config LAN_MIRROR_USE_PROXY
175 prompt "Use the proxy"
179 Say 'Y' here if you need to use the proxy to connect to the LAN mirror.
181 You'll need to say 'Y' if the LAN mirror is not really on your LAN.
185 prompt "Server type:"
187 config LAN_MIRROR_HTTP
191 config LAN_MIRROR_FTP
195 endchoice # Server type
197 config LAN_MIRROR_SCHEME
199 default "http" if LAN_MIRROR_HTTP
200 default "ftp" if LAN_MIRROR_FTP
202 config LAN_MIRROR_HOSTNAME
207 Enter here the hostname on your LAN mirror.
209 config LAN_MIRROR_BASE
211 prompt "Base directory"
214 This is the base directory searched for for tarballs. If you enter
215 /mirror, then the search is performed in the following directories
220 where <name> is replaced with the actual package name.
222 config LAN_MIRROR_LS_R
224 # prompt "Use ls-lR et al."
225 depends on EXPERIMENTAL
228 If the tarball was not found at the above location, see if the server
229 has a ls-lr.gz (or similar) file, and use that file to see if the
230 tarball is listed somewhere in that file.
232 Common file names looked for are:
233 ls-lrRt.txt (used at ftp.gnu.org)
237 endif # USE_LAN_MIRROR
239 config CONNECT_TIMEOUT
241 prompt "connection timeout"
244 From the curl manual:
245 Maximum time in seconds that you allow the connection to the server to take.
247 The scenario is as follows;
248 - some enterprise networks have firewalls that prohibit FTP traffic, while
250 - most download sites have http:// equivalent for the ftp:// URL
251 - after this number of seconds, it is considered that the connection could
252 not be established, and the next URL in the list is tried, until we reach
253 an URL that will go through the firewall, most probably an http:// URL.
255 If you have a slow network, you'd better set this value higher than the default
256 10s. If you know a firewall is blocking connections, but your network is globally
257 fast, you can try to lower this value to jump more quickly to allowed URLs. YMMV.
259 Note that this value applies equally to wget if you have that installed.
261 Of course, you'd be better off to use a proxy, as offered by the previous
266 prompt "Stop after downloading tarballs"
269 Only download the tarballs. Exit once it done.
271 Usefull to pre-retrieve the tarballs before going off-line.
