Stop downloading boost from sourceforge Authored by Itms on May 24 2020, 7:05 PM.
Details The macOS slave is broken since two days for a very stupid reason: sourceforge is sluggish and provides downloads at 50kB/s, so the big boost tarball always fails to download. The official Boost website does not propose source forge download links, so I used the official link instead (downloads in a few seconds). The only remaining use of sourceforge is for libpng, it is still the official download link, so I don't touch it. I will test this in Jenkins.

Link to build: https://jenkins.wildfiregames.com/job/docker-differential/2221/display/redirect Comment Actions What do you mean by safer? It is the link provided at https://www.boost.org/users/download/ Comment Actions I mean that the proposed link has more chances to go down than GitHub :) https://github.com/boostorg/boost/releases but after a second look it seems they only provide the source there, not a preconfigured version so nvm I guess. Comment Actions Oh no I think bintray and github have similar chances of being offline, bintray is a huge deal. On the other hand, sourceforge is slowly dying. Comment Actions This seems reasonable. Accepting on basis of concept - I haven't actually tested that this worked, so double-check the URL :p |
