omniorb switch source from http to https

[chris-jo]

I tried to bake the recipe for omniorb_4.2.0.bb It wasn't possible to fetch the source because it was forbidden. In a bbapend file I switched the sources to https and now it works. SRC_URI = "https://downloads.sourceforge.net/omniorb/omniORB-4.2.0.tar.bz2;name=omniORB420tarbz2" SRC_URI_virtclass-native = "https://downloads.sourceforge.net/omniorb/omniORB-4.2.0.tar.bz2;name=omniORB420tarbz2"

It looks like they moved it in the last couple of weeks. Using curl, with either address, it eventually redirects to the following (in the response, it says permanently):

https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/omniorb/omniORB/omniORB-4.2.0/omniORB-4.2.0.tar.bz2

That's probably the safe bet if they prune the redirects at some point. I'm away from my build system. Can you confirm this address works for you as well (in the recipe)?

[chris-jo]

I tested it. It works as well.

Great, thanks for your help! If you have a PR against the krogoth branch, I'll bring it in. Otherwise I'll handle it Monday.

Edit: On second thought, I think this might be a network issue for them. I tried using wget with the original address. Both worked fine for me, as did your secure HTTP address. However intermittently while trying the longer URL I started getting HTML and XML responses. I then tried a clean load of the bitbake environment off our krogoth branch with MACHINE set to qemuarm and used bitbake -c unpack omniorb to fetch -- it worked fine with the HTTP source.

[chris-jo]

OK, maybe it is just a networking issue of my company.

If you're still on this or have an easy means to test this (since http is working fine for me), would you be able to try this in the recipe:

SRC_URI = "${SOURCEFORGE_MIRROR}/omniorb/omniORB-4.2.0.tar.bz2;name=omniORB420tarbz2"

With any luck, this would be a good fix for the recipe that works for your situation as well as anyone else who gets blocked trying to use http.

I tested it, there is the same issue because it aims to the http mirror.
