github.com site structure breaks mak/Makefile.gather #26

Closed wrowe closed 2 years ago

wrowe commented 2 years ago

The github.com site has changed the list of release tags and artifact links from the index page /project/component/releases into scriptified sub-content pages (with arbitrary hashes pointing to their content store). This breaks using github to resolve those component releases which had not historically flagged "latest". This seems to be remedied now for all dependencies, and the logic to search the list of release tags is no longer needed.

Need to re-work looking up these packages using the redirection link of /project/component/latest which does reveal the tagged package name.

Resolutions;

  1. On previous source packages, do not repeat the Makefile.gather step. Either skip ahead to Makefile.build[-win] which will not access external resources, or use a fresh checkout of oss-httpd-build main branch.

  2. On old checkouts of oss-httpd-build, git fetch and pull the latest changes.
