Ricardo, All,

On 2018-04-05 00:16 -0300, Ricardo Martincoski spake thusly:
> Commit "6d938bcb52 download: git: introduce cache feature" introduced a
> typo that makes the tarball to contain files without the package
> basename:
> $ tar -tvf good-a238b1dfcd825d47d834af3c5223417c8411d90d.tar.gz
> -rw-r--r-- 0/0               8 2017-10-14 02:10 ./file
> 
> Historically, all tarballs are generated with the basename:
> $ tar -tvf good-a238b1dfcd825d47d834af3c5223417c8411d90d.tar.gz
> -rw-r--r-- 0/0               8 2017-10-14 02:10 good-a238b1dfcd825d47d834af3c5223417c8411d90d/file
> 
> The hashes in the tree were calculated with the basename.
> 
> In the most common scenario, after the download ends the tarball is
> generated, the hash mismatches and the download mechanism falls back to
> use the tarball from http://sources.buildroot.net .
> 
> The problem can be reproduced by forcing the download of any git package
> PKG that has a hash file to check against:
> $ make defconfig
> $ ./utils/config --set-str BR2_BACKUP_SITE ""
> $ BR2_DL_DIR=$(mktemp -d) make PKG-dirclean PKG-source
> 
> Fix the typo so the basename is really added to the files, that was
> clearly the intention of the code.

Yes, definitely the intention.

I had that one fix pending locally and did not have time to send it
yesterday evenong, so thinaks for fixing it faster! :-)

It's already been applied, otherwise I'd have given my ACK.

Yann E. MORIN.
