I am trying to switch from "github.tarball_from tarball" to the
recommended "releases". The original "tarball" setting works fine, but
"releases" fails to download. The upstream release and my Portfile
lines are:
https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/releases/tag/v4.9.3 <https://
github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/releases/tag/v4.9.3>
github.setup Unidata netcdf-c 4.9.3 v
github.tarball_from releases
This makes a download URL which gets "Not Found":
https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/releases/download/v4.9.3/netcdf-
c-4.9.3.tar.gz <https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/releases/download/
v4.9.3/netcdf-c-4.9.3.tar.gz>
I tried many permutations of the numbering and prefix strategy, with no
luck. Is this a bug in the github portgroup, or do I misunderstand how
to specify the version number details with "releases"? Or something else?
There are no uploaded assets attached to that release; all that's listed
are the auto-generated tarballs. So you'll have to use 'archive'.
