[Slackbuilds-users] github doubling tarball name, again
Hi, When I try to download: https://github.com/shimmerproject/elementary-xfce/archive/elementary-xfce-0.11.tar.gz the suggested tarball name is: "elementary-xfce-elementary-xfce-0.11.tar.gz" Can someone knowledgeable (I know we have some here ;-)) tell me if it's possible to get the link in a way so that the tarball is actually: "elementary-xfce-0.11.tar.gz" ? Thanks! -- Best regards / Pozdrawiam, Andrzej Telszewski ___ SlackBuilds-users mailing list SlackBuilds-users@slackbuilds.org https://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - https://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - https://slackbuilds.org/faq/

I suppose you are using a browser to download it or wget with the parameter "--content-disposition", but it's not your or github's fault: if you look at the release page you can see that they seem to have tagged it wrong, compare the releases below or equal to v0.9 to the subsequent https://github.com/shimmerproject/elementary-xfce/releases with proper tagging, prepending the name of the tag should let you specify a consistent (not depending on the download type) naming for the tarball, for example https://github.com/shimmerproject/elementary-xfce/archive/v0.9/elementary-xfce-0.9.tar.gz but as tagging for the following releases is broken I don't have a solution for you apart for adding an alternate extraction routine, like tar xvf $CWD/$PRGNAM-$VERSION.tar.gz || tar xvf $CWD/$PRGNAM-$PRGNAM-$VERSION.tar.gz Matteo ___ SlackBuilds-users mailing list SlackBuilds-users@slackbuilds.org https://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - https://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - https://slackbuilds.org/faq/

>> wget works as expected, Firefox doesn't. >> Shit. Again. > > Yes. I avoid to use Firefox for downloading files, especially compressed ones. Well, that's not my opinion. IMO, what's broken is (1) an http tool like wget that by default ignores what the http protocol is telling it. (2) github that doesn't document their download api. (3) projects using stupid tags like 'elementary-xfce-0.11' or 'v0.1.2' or 'Release_3.2.1' instead of just '1.2.3' -D. ___ SlackBuilds-users mailing list SlackBuilds-users@slackbuilds.org https://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - https://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - https://slackbuilds.org/faq/

When support was added, it was flagged as "experimental" and thus disabled by default. From the man page: --content-disposition If this is set to on, experimental (not fully-functional) support for "Content-Disposition" headers is enabled. This can currently result in extra round-trips to the server for a "HEAD" request, and is known to suffer from a few bugs, which is why it is not currently enabled by default. I wouldn't call wget "broken" because of that. But, that's my opinion, plenty of room for others... ___ SlackBuilds-users mailing list SlackBuilds-users@slackbuilds.org https://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - https://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - https://slackbuilds.org/faq/
