I noticed that find_tar_ext() always returns after checking for ".tar.bz2" and ".tar.gz" so it never gets to the check for ".tar". As long as I was fixing that, it seemed like a good time to add ".cwp" as an accepted file extension.
I also updated the code in fromcwd.cc so it can accept any extension found by find_tar_ext() if it is ever reactivated. I think it might be better if no msg() call is made if no "-src" file is found and I also think the fall back to "-src.tar.bz2" or "-src.tar.gz" could be dispensed with. I left those in for now in case someone really wanted them. The code compiles successfully into setup.exe 2.184. I successfully downloaded and installed 3 packages with the new setup.exe. -- Mac :}) ** I normally forward private questions to the appropriate mail list. ** Give a hobbit a fish and he eats fish for a day.

ChangeLog: 2002-01-24 Michael A Chase <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * filemanip.cc (find_tar_ext): Recognize file extensions .tar and .cwd in addition to .tar.gz and .tar.bz2. * fromcwd.cc (do_fromcwd): Try same extension as binary archive for -src archive before falling back to .tar.bz2 or .tar.gz. * install.cc (install_one_source): Add space between words in log() call.
