jigdo don't?

[Gene Heskett]

Greetings;

I just installed jigdo, only to find its called jigsaw in the kmenu, thinking 
it was something like a torrent manager, but apparently not.

But the menu's require a true URL to the image, and if I point it in the upper 
cli line, to the nearly 166KB jigdo file I downloaded from the fedoraunity 
site, called FC-20070401-6-i386.jigdo, it claims it doesn't know how to 
handle that file format yet.

So, since this 'jigdo' thing will be stillborn for obvious reasons, where can 
I find the .torrent for that respin?  I thought I saw a link to it once, but 
the availability of fedoraunity.org seems to come and go, and I've not 
managed to find the page with that link on it again.

Ok, I got it to start by manually entering the URL to the exact same file I 
had already downloaded.  That's a right cast iron pita when it can't be 
copied & pasted from firefox...

So either I need instructions on how to setup FF to start jigdo with that url 
as an argument, or jigdo needs fixed.  Starting a download should not take 50 
screen changes and 30 minutes to get it going.  Needless to say, I voted for 
future releases in torrent because I can do this in azureus in just a minute 
or so, plus time to carve a hole in my firewall.

And now the transfer has been interrupted after about 70 of the 255 megs just 
for the template, and now it wants to know where I live but refuses to take a 
USA entry.  And under advanced it apparently needs a comma separated list of 
url's.  How the hell should I know where in a 100 million servers where this 
stuff is?  Rhetorical question obviously.

Screw it, send jigdo back to finishing school, and where can I get 
the .torrent file?

Thanks.
