Boost download fails due to 'Unhandled stream error'

[jamsch0]

I cannot get a native module I am creating to build, since the cmake-js rebuild fails to finish downloading Boost. I tried cloning your tutorial repository and had the same experience. Included below is the cmake-js output and a link to a gist of the full npm error log.

There is something not right with boost 1.58 release, because its https://github.com/boostorg/numeric_ublas/archive/boost-1.58.0.tar file gives 404, despite it is registered as a valid submodule release file on github.

[jamsch0]

Just tried 1.57 and 1.59, both of which suffer from the same issue. Do you know of a working version, or are all versions likely to be affected?

[unbornchikken]

1.58 worked at the time of boost-lib release for sure. I can ignore 404 submos, though. But they will not compile of course if your module depend on it.

[jamsch0]

I see. Is there a workaround that I can use so I can at least get started developing my module, manually downloading the files perhaps?

[unbornchikken]

Sorry, I hadn't have the time to do a 404 skipper patch. I hope I can do it in this weekend. Or would you try to make a PR for handling this?

[jamsch0]

I would if I knew what I was doing, but I'll wait for your patch instead, no rush.

It has been tweaked in 0.9.2.
