Hi Eric, Big time saver. Thank you.
Everything looked great. So, I updated the version on Gitlab. It will be in the next Interim Test Build. > On Nov 4, 2024, at 4:07 PM, Eric Auer via Freedos-devel > <freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> wrote: > > > Hi Jerome, > > I have made a CURL ZIP from the mik.dyndns.pro 8.5.0 files > now.

No problem. :-) It is something that happens automatically. Before the RBE compresses the packages for inclusion on the media, it scans for files that do not conform to the 8.3 filename convention. If it finds any it moves them into a LFNFILES.ZIP under the root subdirectory of that file for the package. In other words, if it was somewhere under NET\CURL\SOMETHING\SOMETHING\LONGNAME.FILE it will be put into NET\CURL\LFNFILES.ZIP. Same goes for other paths for the program. Sources is a little different. We just compress them regardless anymore. The exception being when specific criteria is met. Like one a simple README.TXT file under sources. > > The sources are packed in a single 7z file now, containing > a readme (which says I omitted some test suites) and those > TAR files offered by Michael in TXZ compressed form, with > some test suites removed by me, but no other changes :-) > Note that, as in your own ZIP, sources expect LFN support. Sounds good. > I have used zip -r --DOS-names to create the final ZIP file: That is fine. Once anything requiring LFNs has been zipped up, the RBE forces DOS filenames on the main archive as well. > > https://auersoft.eu/soft/by-others/curl850-repackaged.zip > > I have no clue how this would be added to your GIT database. > You know much more about that and GIT than I do. I hope that > my ZIP already is useful as-is: Down from 35 MB to 11 MB :-) I took the easy way. Downloaded and extracted your zip. Deleted everything in the local cloned copy of the project. Dropped your files in that project. Added all of the files to the project. Ran the timestamp correction utility and pushed it to GitLab. All done. Quick and painless. Thanks. Jerome
