Installing pypi-dependency from private repo: `git` works but `url` .whl fails

[jardol321]

Authentication fails when installing .whl from a private github/release but works when using git link. Is there any way to config pixi to use github PAT?

pyproject.toml

[project]
authors = [{name = "jardol321", email = "XXX"}]
name = "mypackage"
requires-python = ">= 3.10"
version = "0.1.0"

[build-system]
build-backend = "hatchling.build"
requires = ["hatchling"]

[tool.pixi.workspace]
channels = ["conda-forge"]
platforms = ["linux-64"]

[tool.pixi.pypi-dependencies]
mypackage = { path = ".", editable = true }

# this works
private_package = { git = "https://github.com/org/private_package.git"  }
# this fails
private_package = { url = "https://github.com/org/private_package/releases/download/v0.1.0/private_package-0.1.0-py3pnone-any.whl" }

error:

Maybe @tdejager or @wolfv have an idea on why this might not work correctly?

[tdejager]

It seems like that package is just not available at that url.

[tdejager]

Does curl work?

[wolfv]

This URL also looks strange (notice pnone: private_package-0.1.0-py3pnone-any.whl)
