Summary: Kstars fails to install addons that are compressed in
bz2 format
Classification: Applications
Product: kstars
Version: unspecified
Platform: Microsoft Windows
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]

SUMMARY
Kstars fails to install addons that are compressed with bz2 by showing error
message "Could not install <addon name>: file not found". Addons that are
compressed with gz work without issues.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Fresh install of Kstars on windows (latest website installer, shows in About
dialog as 3.7.2 Beta)
2. Data menu -> Download new data -> try to donwload for example Tycho 2 star
catalog
3. Error message shown, catalog not installed
OBSERVED RESULT
Addons in bz2 format are not installed
EXPECTED RESULT
Addons should be installed
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 10
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0
Qt Version: 5.15.13
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Most addons coming from https://cdn.kde.org/edu/kstars/main.xml seem to be
affected as they are in bz2 format (besides two Mars addons that are in zip
format) , addons from https://indilib.org/jdownloads/knewstuff/dso.xml are not
affected as they are in gz format.
I enabled logging to file and this is the relevant line:
[2024-07-27T14:53:16.649 FLE Daylight Time CRIT ][
kf.newstuff.core] - Could not determine type of archive file '
"Q:/temp/temp/eaOHkF-tycho2_mag_12.5-1.1.tar.bz2" '
I verified that the mentioned file does exist and unpacks without errors - so
not a download issue.
