Tarball 1.30 is broken

[akimd]

Hi!

The current tarball contains two extraneous entries, which are in addition wrong.

because of this, it cannot be easily extracted:

$ tar xf d-1.30-src.tar.gz
d/my.c: Can't create 'd/my.c'
d/my.g: Can't create 'd/my.g'
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.

Gads, that file is 5 years old. The current version is on github: https://github.com/jplevyak/dparser

I'll update the file and docs.

Yes, I can see that it's old, yet the releases on GitHub are even older. Do you mean that there won't be any releases in the future and that users are expected to pull master?

[jplevyak]

I can make a release, but the master is the stable.

The problem here is mainly distros. I arrived here because MacPorts relies on your releases, and it was stuck to 1.30, which is broken. I suppose MacPorts can build from a git repo, but it does not sound very sane to do that, that's too volatile. At least make tags. But releases is certainly the preferred option for distro maintainers.

[jplevyak]

I made a new release, and I'll check on MacPorts.
