aria2 can't load cookies

[yurikoles]

aria2 from upstream can load cookies, but brewed one can't. Please fix it.

Please provide a step-by-step reproducible test case with what you expect to happen and what actually happens. Please also assume (correctly) we have never used this software before.

aria2c --help=#cookie

Options:
 --load-cookies=FILE          Load Cookies from FILE using the Firefox3 format
                              and Mozilla/Firefox(1.x/2.x)/Netscape format.
                              Possible Values: /path/to/file
                              Tags: #basic, #http, #cookie

Note from official site:

If aria2 is built without libsqlite3, then it doesn't support Firefox3 and Chromium/Google Chrome cookie format.

So, for example, one may want to download latest Xcode beta from Apple, but speed is very slow, so we log-in into Apple Developer portal with Apple ID in Firefox, and rung the following command in teminal:

aria2c http://adcdownload.apple.com//Developer_Tools/Xcode_6.2_beta_4/Xcode_6.2_beta_4.dmg --load-cookies=/Users/<usename>/Library/Application\ Support/Firefox/Profiles/<profileID>.default/cookies.sqlite -s16 -x16

Expected behavior: download of Xcode_6.2_beta_4.dmg in 16 threads (last 2 parameters) with session saved in Firefox cookie. Actual behavior: it fails with error. Reason: aria2 is built without sqlite3.

Actual behavior: it fails with error.

Can you post the actual error output?

Reason: aria2 is built without sqlite3.

I see:

$ otool -L $(which aria2c)

Sorry, I double checked, the problem was in "~" vs "/Users/yurikoles".

[jacknagel]

Sorry, do you mean there isn't an issue here?

[yurikoles]

I mean this is an upstream issue, we have nothing to do here. Upstream version also can't deal with "~" in path.
