Switch away from GDrive as an ISO host #3

Closed ShalokShalom closed 1 year ago

Hi there 👋🏻

I see you are the new maintainer of HoloISO ;)

I have seen, that Google repos are still used for this project.

As you may know, they are insecure since they use no form of encryption or checksums.

See this: https://radixproject.org/

Alternatively, the AUR can be used for packages, so long as they can be installed on any arch deployment.

zweiler2 commented 1 year ago

@ShalokShalom I do provide the SHA512 of the ISOs, so you can be sure that it hasn't been tampered with or something.
@pastaq How would i package an ~3.1GB ISO for the AUR? As far as i know only PKGBUILDs are allowed there...
To be clear: I am open to ideas to move away from GDrive, but as of now it seems to be the best option for me...

Aaaand .. Radix? Or another host?

Oracle has an amazing Free Tier. https://www.oracle.com/cloud/free/

zweiler2 commented 1 year ago

Never heard of Radix before. It looks like i would have to apply to a waitlist, then probably talk a bit back and forth with them to get taken as a partner and for a small fork of a niche project this seems like a bit of a (unneeded) hassle at the moment.
Oracle looks nice, though a bit overkill to use it just as a fileserver and their wording on whats actually included in the free tier is confusing.

I also have a self hosted repo so it could be hosted on there. It is hosted on oracle cloud in France, has TLS and is currently only used for a small aur repo so I could definitely make some room for it.

Closing this issue because @Ew4n1011 kindly provided his server.

Wonderful 😄

I'm getting an SSL error when trying to download any of the non Google Cloud Releases:

curl https://repo.ewan1011.me/f/b2f8b2ea09584f3da9f7/?dl=1
> curl: (35) schannel: next InitializeSecurityContext failed: SEC_E_ILLEGAL_MESSAGE (0x80090326) - This error usually occurs when a fatal SSL/TLS alert is received (e.g. handshake failed). More detail may be available in the Windows System event log.

Hey, repo server admin here

Seems rebooting the server for security updates crashed seafile (the service running the web server), it should be back up and running now

NewYearNewPhil commented 1 year ago

Hi @Ew4n1011, thanks for the super swift response! I'll abort the current installation process and use the most recent release then ;)

I understand that using Google Drive isnt optimal, but maybe it should be considered to still provide Google downloads as a fallback option - downloading from there is also significantly faster

Torrents could also help.

Or something like wormhole.app
