Download filenames and architecture

Open rgaudin opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

It looks like we are not consistent in how we specify architectures for the various binaries we offer

From the nightly download, I can list the following architectures:

  • i386
  • i586
  • i686
  • x86
  • x64
  • x86_64
  • x86-64
  • amd64
  • arm
  • armv6
  • armv8
  • arm64
  • aarch64
  • universal
  • (not specified or meaning universal)

I believe we should decide on a rule, apply and document it; either following an internal convention of the target platform's usage.

Happy to conform to a canonical list where that's appropriate (it's not appropriate for browser add-ons, where there is no architecture separate from the browser itself).

It might also make things clearer if we stuck to the convention used (mostly) in ZIM naming, that an underscore separates different "fields", while a hyphen separates different "attributes" of a field. So, the architecture field should be between two underscores, but should use hyphens internally only if needed. Hence _x86-64_ (but _arm64_, because hyphen not needed for legibility in this case).
