Hello, colleagues There have been repeated discussions about two features that the current .info file format is missing:
1. aarch64 architecture. If in the past slarm64 was still an unofficial port, with -current it is official, and quite widely available, given the number of RPi machines available. 2. urls of the form https://example.test/address/ and https://example.test/address/1.json , which are either not supported by wget or can be mixed with each other, if downloaded into the same directory, which is especially bad with Golang and Haskell builds, which have many package-components, called 1.json. To address this issue, I propose a backward-compatible change to .info files format. 1. add DOWNLOAD_AARCH64 and DOWNLOAD_X86, a space-separated bash-string-list, identical in function to DOWNLOAD and DOWNLOAD_X86_64 2. add DOWNLOAD_NAME, DOWNLOAD_X86_64_NAME, DOWNLOAD_AARCH64_NAME, and DOWNLOAD_X86_NAME, space-separated _optional_ strings, which, if present, specify what the results of download should be named. If they are absent, current logic is not changed. Please, consider the upsides and downsides of this RFC. -- Your sincerely, Vladimir Nikishkin (MiEr, lockywolf) (Laptop) _______________________________________________ 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/
