Re: [ptxdist] [PATCH] libtar: add as new package

[Alexander Dahl <post@lespocky.de>]

Hei hei, 

I had some problems with the get stage and git urls we already discussed
in IRC last week. This still occurs with the current ptxdist 2014.02.0
release, so I describe what I found.

In this context I noticed a behavior of ptxdist I consider a bug. Let me
describe:

We use collections here. If I mark the libtar package <*> in the config
everything builds fine. If I mark it <m> in the config and [*] in the
collection there's no problem, too. However if I mark this package <m>
in the config but leave it [ ] in the connection a manual call to the
get stage fails:


% ptxdist get libtar

----------------------------
target: libtar-1.2.20.tar.gz
----------------------------


error: empty parameter to 'ptxd_make_get'

make: ***
[/home/adahl/mnt/bagend-isys/Downloads/ptxdist_src_archive/libtar-1.2.20.tar.gz]
Error 1


I didn't notice this behavior with ordinary packages getting their
tarball by HTTP, but this one is different, because it uses git and
builds the tarball from the local mirror.

Maybe anyone has time to look into this. ;-)
