Phil,

Thanks for looking into that. You can try to fix it on your own and make

Re: Unable to build 4.13 SDK with AIR v24 or later on Mac (was Re: [Discuss] Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.3.1 RC2*)

[Phil Haeusler]

Hi Piotr

FLEX-35384 Raised [1]

I don't appear to have the permission to assign issues, so it's currently
left unassigned.

I am using High Sierra.

I grabbed the installer code and had a quick look, and it appears that the
method InstallApacheFlex.unzipAdobeAIRSDKMac() is always calling untar() on
the downloaded file without taking into account that AIR v24 and later is
now delivered as a .dmg

Thanks
Phil

Hi Phil,

Many Thanks for all of those tests. Can you raise JIRA and assign to me [1]
with all your findings. I will try to find some time this month and play a
bit with that stuff on my Mac. Are you running High Sierra ?

You can check the status of the mirrors here [1] Have a look at the age 
histogram towards the bottom of the page. It looks like most of the mirrors are 
less than 10 hours behind, 24 is usually more than enough for just about all of 
the mirror to catch up.

Hi Guys,

FYI, Yesterday  (Sunday my time) I have moved binaries to different folder
- because there were in a wrong one in comparing to the previous release.
It ends up that I need to wait for the mirrors. I thought that after 24
hours they will be available but they are not. I got also email again after
folder change that I need to put on the list Title: " Please add your
release data for 'flex'" - I did that when I first time pushed binaries -
If I won't do that now - does it affects mirrors propagation ?

Thanks,
Piotr
