gentooget is a replacement download script for Gentoo Linux portage which acts as a facade for the aria2 downloader (http://aria2.sourceforge.net/) to enable simultaneous multi-part downloads from different Gentoo mirrors thus improving download speed. It also provides a facility to switch between 2 different (probably ADSL) Internet connections. This is desirable in dumbassed countries where you pay per Gb for ADSL and the costs for local only are a order of magnitude cheaper than international access. This allows use of a local connection where possible but if a download fails where the file is not available on a local mirror then gentooget switches to the international connection, downloads the file and then switches back to the local connection.
