Can't update repo because source URL is too long

klingt.net · 2016-09-21 07:24:23

Today I wanted to update caddy-full-bin to 0.9.2 which adds a number of extensions to the source URL.
Unfortunately, I can't push the updated repo to the AUR because the .SRCINFO check fails:

remote: Traceback (most recent call last):
remote:   File "hooks/update", line 389, in <module>
remote:     save_metadata(metadata, conn, user)
remote:   File "hooks/update", line 135, in save_metadata

remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
To git+ssh://aur.archlinux.org/caddy-full-bin.git

It looks like this can't be fixed without altering the database schema by changing the column width.
The .SRCINFO in question looks like this:

Edit: this doesn't work. see posts below.

~~I went to the site and found out that this shorter URL works (I didn't try with all platforms)~~

$ curl "https://caddyserver.com/download/build?os=linux&arch=amd64" > caddy.tar.gz
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
100 4700k    0 4700k    0     0   487k      0 --:--:--  0:00:09 --:--:-- 1139k

No idea about the AUR error though.

The shorter URL will download a caddy build /wo extensions because they have to be specified explicitly.

a821 · 2016-09-21 09:13:33

OK. I missed the part where you select the features :-)

An obvious workaround will be using a URL shortener. Also try asking in the AUR mailing list,

I've send a message to the AUR mailing list.
The idea using an URL shortener is convenient but I would not like to use it because of security concerns.

Even worse, the server published the old PKGBUILD as new version while crashing on the source URL check and claiming to reject the push.
This is an AUR bug.

What if you quote the url?

source_i686 = "caddy.tar.gz::https://caddyserver.com/download/build?os=linux&features=awslambda,cors,filemanager,git,hugo,ipfilter,jwt,locale,mailout,minify,multipass,prometheus,ratelimit,realip,search,upload,cloudflare,digitalocean,dnsimple,dyn,gandi,googlecloud,namecheap,rfc2136,route53,vultr&arch=386"

Quoted URLs doesn't solve the problem.
EDIT: I've tested it.

Post full pkgbuild so others can test. What if instead of double quotes you use single quotes?
