That 'tb87' worries me the most :) Oh right, I believe those aren't etched in stone indeed. In principle we could also provide automatic compatibily links such as /master/Linux-rpm_deb-x86_64/current/ , but I'd need to check with QA whether there could be @$FOOBAR collisions in the future. >> For stable releases, one can use the trick described at >> https://listarchives.tdf.io/i/P3QatPuSx3u3UgM3hqC1h46s . >> >>$ curl -A 'LibreOffice 0.0 (3215f89-f603614-ab984f2-7348103-1225a5b; >> Linux; x86_86; BundledLanguages=)' \ >>https://update.libreoffice.org/check.php | xmlstarlet sel -T -t -v >> '/inst:description/inst:version' > > So I'd like to use this one, very handy; but I still remind wget complaining > about the delay between release time and that pointer being updated.

I see, the update check won't work so soon after the release indeed: in order to have some peace of mind should any regression occurs rel'eng wants to wait a few days before updating the update check. So unfortunately for that use-case there is currently no other solution than parsing our directory listings; either the HTML, or rsync $ rsync rsync://rsync.documentfoundation.org/tdf-pub/libreoffice/stable/ | sed -nr 's/.*\s([0-9]\S*)$/\1/p' | sort -V | tail -n1 7.3.1 cheers -- Guilhem. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: website+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/website/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy

[libreoffice-website] A couple of questions on LO builds
Hi all, Sorry for the (probably stupid and already addressed several times) questions this mail will surely contain. I'm trying to automate the building of AppImage for LibreOffice, starting from the good work of Antonio Faccioli [1]. For the sake of clarity, those AppImage builds are basically a repackage of the .deb contents from TDF-released packages. I have some questions: * Are x86-based (32bit) builds definitely abandoned? I don't see any x86 builds in the dev-builds.lo.org site nor in download.df.org site; * Is there any other smarter way to know the last available .deb build, both for stable releases and for daily builds, than parsing those pages? * As a side note, do you have a tool of choice for triggering such builds? What is the workflow (in a few words) there? I'm giving Rundeck [2] a spin for this.
