Can't use special chars in mirror names? #12

Closed edrozenberg closed 6 years ago

edrozenberg commented 6 years ago

I'm using the following configuration settings, and it appears one or more of the characters . - prevent things from working properly. No error - but the priority setting does not have effect.

PKGS_PRIORITY=( soft1-slack64-15.0 slackware64 )
REPOPLUS=( soft1-slack64-15.0 slackpkgplus )
MIRRORPLUS['soft1-slack64-15.0']=http://soft1/software/slackware/packages/slackware64-15.0/

The problem appears to be with the .

When I change the naming to soft1-slack64-15 things work as expected.

The only supported special characters supported in repository name are '-' and '_'. This is becouse the '.' char is a special character in regex and need a special treatment in code developing. So you can call your repository soft1-slack64-15_0

Thank you, using underscore and hyphen works fine.
