Description
I'm forwarding this bug that has been reported in Debian's BTS (#461582):
I've noticed a strange behaviour of algorithm used to retry downloads if failed.
Usually (no changes to default settings) 2 downloads from the same projects are allowed at the same time.
If there are many downloads from the same projects, and one of them failed, it is put in "retry in xx.xx" mode; at the same time, another file (for the same project) is started to download.
When the file in waiting for "retry" elapses its wait time, it is restarted, and on file currently in download is moved in "download pending".
I think the right behaviour would be to put the waken download file into "download pending" not a file that is in "downloading" state.
This ticket was filed for Client 5.10.45. Should be fixed by now. Please open new ticket if not.
