Wrong update information embedded in AppImage #3

Closed probonopd closed 7 years ago

me@host:~$ /home/me/Downloads/kmail-git20170206-x86_64.AppImage --appimage-updateinformation
zsync|kmail-git20170206-x86_64.AppImage

This is not going to work, AppImageUpdate has no way of knowing where to download the zsync file from. As per the spec, it needs to be:

zsync|https://s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/ds9-apps/kmail-master-appimage/kmail_latestversion.zsync

I see where I went wrong. commiting fix.

probonopd commented 7 years ago 
$ /home/me/Downloads/kmail-git20170208-x86_64.AppImage --appimage-updateinformation
 zsync|https://s3-eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/ds9-apps/kmail-appimage/master/kmail-git20170208-x86_64.AppImage

ends in .AppImage and not (as it should) in .AppImage.zsync; looks like theappimagetool -u` argument was missing the ".zsync" at the end.

With https://s3-eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/ds9-apps/kmail-master-appimage/kmail-git20170211-x86_64.AppImage, this is in the Update Information: https://s3-eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/ds9-apps/kmail-appimage/master/kmail_latestversion.zsync but a file with this name does not exist on the server...

ok paths fixed now. still not updating :(

probonopd commented 7 years ago

In the last version, the correct paths are in. Running into https://github.com/probonopd/zsync-curl/issues/17 now. Not specifically related to this AppImage, which most likely is fine.

probonopd commented 7 years ago

Good news, identified the root cause of the remaining issue, https://github.com/probonopd/zsync-curl/issues/17

probonopd commented 7 years ago

AppImageUpdate version 443 and later should be able to download from S3 now, because they are using the semistatic build of zsync-curl (that links to libcurl statically but to OpenSSL dynamically).

wget -c "https://s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/ds9-apps/kmail-master-appimage/kmail-git20170214-13:41:28-x86_64.AppImage"
./AppImageUpdate-443.g69bf471-x86_64.AppImage /home/me/kmail-git20170214-13\:41\:28-x86_64.AppImage

Works for me: File is delta-updated, 98.1% are reused from the old version and only 1.9% are downloaded.

Please reports how it works for you.

This is now fixed. Thanks!
