transient? failures downloading doctest 0.8.0 #280

Open cbm755 opened 1 year ago

cbm755 commented 1 year ago

I just tried

>>> pkg install -forge doctest
error: pkg: could not download file /tmp/doctest-0.8.0-yFAg9T.tar.gz from URL https://packages.octave.org/download/doctest-0.8.0.tar.gz
error: called from
    pkg at line 542 column 13

And I observed some test failures in CI too...

Is it transient? Do we need a new patch release b/c of the repo move...?

Yeah, transient, fixed now. I see failures in CI that use doctest rarely but not never... Might be a good reason to move our official tarball elsewhere. Let's watch packages.octave.org and see what best practice evolves
