Re: [rfc patch] replace avhttp with libcurl

 

Actually let's add #3

3. Github recently disabled http on the codeload domain. There are
also users from back in the day that used KIGITHUB with http://
instead of https://. There are also users who used custom repos with
http:// instead of https://. We currently keep the "http" scheme when
querying codeload. Which now returns a connection timeout as the
server doesn't even send redirects.

Yes I fixed that in my patch (simple 3 liens)



No DNS issues that I know of basically. So if anything Dick may be
suggesting a fix to the race condition but otherwise I'm confused.
