Git release tag: bigloo-4.5b

[kpcyrd]

hello, I'm currently looking for an alternative download location of the bigloo-4.5b soure code as part of an effort in Arch Linux to retire downloading source code from ftp://, with bigloo being the last remaining package.

I'm looking for an alternative location for this file, preferably over https:

ftp://ftp-sop.inria.fr/indes/fp/Bigloo/bigloo-4.5b.tar.gz

Pushing a git tag for this version would also work, the Arch Linux build system can fetch source code from git.

Thanks!

Any updates here? Bigloo is still the last package left on this todo list and I couldn't manage to locate the source code on https://www-sop.inria.fr.

I noticed that this github repo has a branch for each release. Maybe the zip of the branches can be of use here?

If you are simply looking for an ftp alternative, you can download the tarball here:

http://www-sop.inria.fr/indes/fp/Bigloo/download/bigloo-latest.tar.gz

This is the "official" URL for the Bigloo tarballs. Please let me know if this is what you are looking for.

Best,

bigloo-latest.tar.gz isn't what I'm looking for unfortunately because it sounds like it may change to a version other than 4.5b at some point in the future.

I see. You can now use http://www-sop.inria.fr/indes/fp/Bigloo/download/bigloo-4.5b.tar.gz

Thanks, I've rebuilt the package and ftp:// has been retired from Arch Linux. :)
