Hi everyone.
Just curious: is it normal or expected to have a P5I file which has an
empty or missing "origins" list?
Yes.
When processing a P5I file, I'm wondering if it is proper to try the
repo the file came from as a default origin if the "origins" entry is
missing. (Of course it would be an error if the P5I file came from
somewhere other than a repository.)
It doesn't know the repo the file came from, so that would be difficult.
If you're talking about the .p5i links in the web interface, the issue
is that the administrator hasn't configured their repository correctly.
So are you saying that the "Yes" above is in-general, but P5I files from
repositories should have a non-blank origins list?
Assuming the repo the P5I came from is known, would plugging the repo in
as a default for a missing origin be correct handling, or is this
treating an error condition that should not be encountered?
Thanks,
Jack
