hdparm installer links broken (404)

Open dge8 opened this issue 4 years ago • 9 comments

Site (https://sites.google.com/site/disablehddapm/) appears to have been updated in Nov 2020, breaking existing installer links. Unclear if the software has been updated too.

I'll take a look at it tommorow, but i've already seen a mistake, that's HDDAPM not HDDARM.

@gep13, for that kind of mistake, what's the best solution ? a meta package that redirects to the correct one and the correct with the good name?

Thank you

While the URL is:

https://sites.google.com/site/disablehddapm/

The contents of that page do suggest that it is called:

HDPARM FOR WINDOWS (FREEWARE)

So I don't think that there is anything to change here in terms of name.

Well, i didn't forgot this request but it uses gdrive, and i'm stuck on it @gep13, do you have an idea about how i can use it?

@tunisiano187 I am not sure if I understand your question. Can you elaborate on the problem that you are seeing?

The installer is now on a Google drive, the link is to a page with download link from Google

@tunisiano187 is this a package that you are still interested in maintaining? If not, I think it would make sense to raise a package request issue for it, and we can close out this issue. Thoughts?

I don't find how to do it, so yes it can be raised for another to take it
