Todd Mitton commented on MYNEWT-582:
------------------------------------
Thanks David. We'll get this fixed. I've been doing 'go get
mynewt.apache.org/newt/...' and failed to notice that getting just newt/newt or
newt/newt/image didn't work.
> "go get mynewt.apache.org/newt/newt" fails

> Key: MYNEWT-582
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYNEWT-582
> Project: Mynewt
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Newt
> Reporter: David Brown
> Assignee: Todd Mitton
> Priority: Minor
>
> It isn't possible to develop mynewt using conventional go methods, or to use
> it as a dependency in another package.
> The problem is that the https://mynewt.apache.org/newt/ doesn't return valid
> results for subdirectories.
> {code}
> curl https://mynewt.apache.org/newt/
> curl https://mynewt.apache.org/newt/newt/
> curl https://mynewt.apache.org/newt/newt/image/
> {code}
> The first above command returns valid redirects for github, but the second
> just returns a 404. This causes the git fetch to fail.
> If something such as mcuboot/imgtool tries to use
> https://mynewt.apache.org/newt/newt/image as a dependency, it also fails to
> fetch this.
> I believe the fix is to return the metadata page for subdirectories. At least
> 'newt/newt' and 'newt/newt/image' should be used, the first to make the newt
> tool itself buildable, and the second to allow the image library to be used
> as a dependency by mcuboot.
> Probably add the other top level ones, such as newtmgr as well.
