Question about the release .tar.gz files #1

Closed bsnapko closed 6 years ago

bsnapko commented 6 years ago

Hello,

This is a minor question about the download release .tar.gz files.

When downloading release files from the GitHub opensm release URL : https://github.com/linux-rdma/opensm/releases

The file names seem to have the project name prepended to the expected file name and version number. The expected download file release name was constructed using the OFA previous release names. e.g. opensm-3.3.20.tar.gz

For example, Downloading a .tar.gz file for opensm-3.3.20 results in a file named opensm-opensm-3.3.20.tar.gz

This double project name results in the .tar.gz directories to have the double project name. For example, extracting the 3.3.20 release .tar.gz file would result in this directory naming. opensm-opensm-3.3.20/NEWS opensm-opensm-3.3.20/README

Is this double project name planned and will be used going forward in future releases?

Thank you for your help.

The OpenSM git repo was recently moved from the OFA server to github. Here is the announcement that I sent:

Subject: [ANNOUNCE] opensm git repo is now moved from OFA server to github.com linux-rdma Date: Tue, 12 Jun 2018 10:02:45 -0400 From: Hal Rosenstock hal@dev.mellanox.co.il To: ewg@lists.openfabrics.org, linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org

The opensm git repo on the OFA server (http://git.openfabrics.org/?p=~halr/opensm.git) is now obsolete and has been moved to the linux-rdma project in github.com (https://github.com/linux-rdma/opensm).

Original releases (tar balls) are available on http://downloads.openfabrics.org/management/

Last release was opensm-3.3.20 on June 9, 2016

Note the sentence about the original releases (tar balls). The github releases are not the original releases. Does the 3.3.20 release in http://downloads.openfabrics.org/management/ do the same thing ?

Official github releases for OpenSM will start with the 3.3.21 release. It will be fixed there.

Does the 3.3.20 release in http://downloads.openfabrics.org/management/ do the same thing ? No, the 3.3.20 does not have the double project name.

Thank you for your help.
