build_tarballs with --deploy="user/mylib_jll.jl" leads to `device_flow_disabled` error when authenticating with GitHub

[mathieu17g]

I have a device_flow_disabled error when trying to deploy a JLL on my GitHub repository:

➜  CGAL git:(master) ✗ julia build_tarballs.jl --deploy="mathieu17g/CGAL_jll.jl" --verbose x86_64-apple-darwin

It is the first time that I have tried to deploy on my repository, so I can't say it ever worked for me, but I found this change on GitHub that may affect everybody https://github.blog/changelog/2022-03-16-enable-oauth-device-authentication-flow-for-apps/

Does anyone else experience the same issue?

Uhm, thanks for the report, but I just deployed a repository to GitHub without issues. For what is worth I used the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable, maybe that helps for the time being?

[mathieu17g]

Thanks for the hint. It works for me now when using a GitHub token via the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable. Shall I close the issue?

Good to hear!

Shall I close the issue?

No, maybe we still need to fix the settings of the app

[Octogonapus]

I just hit this as well. Same error.

[chkwon]

I have the same error.

Following the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable trick, I did:

$ export GITHUB_TOKEN="ghp_........"
$ julia build_tarball.jl .....

and it worked.

The GITHUB_TOKEN can be generated here: https://github.com/settings/tokens

[jamesrhester]

The GITHUB_TOKEN trick didn't work for me, perhaps there are particular permissions my token should have? I have allowed it to create repositories and write to repositories.

[giordano]

Can someone please try again? I believe I just enabled device flow in the settings of the app

[giordano]

According to https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/Yggdrasil/pull/5210#issuecomment-1193128118 this is now fixed.
