-with-installer: Ubuntu Focal starts using a slightly different path

Open jbglaw opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

The recent -with-installer support allowed to also mirror Debian's installer files. Also worked for Ubuntu.

With the -with-installer support enabled, two files (ie. http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/focal/main/debian-installer/binary-amd64/Packages.gz and http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/focal/main/installer-amd64/current/images/SHA256SUMS) are pulled and examined. The first still exists, but (probably in spirit of an upcoming EFI based network installer) the current installer files are now shasum'ed in http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/focal/main/installer-amd64/current/legacy-images/SHA256SUMS (so "images" is now "legacy-images")

Since the SHA256SUMS doesn't exist in the expected location, nothing is pulled for Ubuntu Focal.

It's probably just a few spots in deb/remote.go and deb/index_files.go to polish I guess, along with an update to the tests.

i created a workaround, it´s not a beauty but it works so far.
