Hi Israel,

I think I have fixed the bugs in the downloader dltbl.

- Downloading was fixed in general. The problem was caused by some of
your changes to make the OBI work from other directories than the
original ones.

- Furthermore the precise versions are not compatible with the trusty
versions (actually raring+), so we need different repositories, a
separate one for ToriOS (precise) and the standard OBI (trusty).

This is fixed now, with a new directory tree in Phill's server, matching
a new logic section in dltbl. The tarballs are hard-linked to those
already uploaded at the previous directories.

symlink___precise/2md5sums-phillw.bash
_264______precise/md5sums-phillw.txt
1,1G______precise/tarballs
symlink___trusty/2md5sums-phillw.bash
2234______trusty/md5sums-phillw.txt
20G_______trusty/tarballs

I will continue testing. I think you have tested the basic OBI level, so
that should work, but maybe not the advanced OBI level. And you have
even made a GUI for mktbl, to make tarballs easier, so that should work too.

The debugged file dltbl,

d5400aabc746d9e6be4e512f452ebde9  dltbl

is uploaded to

http://phillw.net/isos/linux-tools/torios/2015-01/

When this cycle of improvements and debugging finishes, I suggest that
we change this OBI version to 2.8.

Best regards
Nio
