Certain Github Release tags are returning 404s for their assets

Open LikeLakers2 opened this issue 3 months ago • 3 comments

Hi! For some time, I've noticed that certain Github Release tags exist, with all their assets - yet Github is returning 404s for all listed assets.

In particular, I noticed it with the following:

Checking older versions, such as [email protected], seems to suggest that Github itself is deleting old release assets, rather than it being a bug with those specific releases.

I've no idea how to handle this, beyond suggesting that more and more projects start providing their own releases. However, I'm hoping that making this issue could kickstart some sort of solution to the issue.

This is due to #442, a possibly false positive of virus causes us to mass delete the tags.

We then recovered some of them but some older, less frequently used pre-builts are not recovered, since we have limited time and budget, and if enough people use it, it'd trigger a re-build of it.

The [email protected] is hitting me atm. Is it possible to fix it somehow?

With enough people downloading it, it'd be automatically build.

The build pipeline seems to work without issues.

BTW we do not guarantee the availability of any crate, it'd best-effort support.
