Error while installng kali-weekly
Expected behaviour
Installing kali-weekly with 'quickget kali weekly'
Actual behaviour
When i try to download kali-weekly with quickget, i receive an error I can fix with wget, but the URL is wrong (even with wget): https://cdimage.kali.org/weekly/ -> https://cdimage.kali.org/kali-weekly/ Probably can do it without the wget simply fixing the 'get_kali' function setting the correct URL
Steps to reproduce the behaviour
quickget kali weekly
Quickemu output
[arch@arch]$ quickget kali weekly kali-weekly/: Is a directory ERROR! Failed to download https://cdimage.kali.org/weekly/ with wget. Try running 'quickget' again.
Linux Distribution & Kernel
Run the following and paste the output.
Arch Linux 6.7.4-arch1-1
You need to request kali-weekly
$ quickget kali
ERROR! You must specify a release.
- Releases: current kali-weekly
quickget -s kali kali-weekly
https://cdimage.kali.org/kali-weekly/kali-linux-2024-W06-installer-amd64.iso
Thank you very much and sorry for the misunderstanding :D
This still is an issue in the current release of quickget. Inputting only part of a valid OS, Release, or Edition name doesn't throw an error and list available values like it should; rather, it proceeds and either gives you a nonsensical error (e.g. "releases_win: command not found") or tries to download a file from a nonexistent URL. Quickget should test if the entire value matches. A simple way to do this would be to add spaces around the values being checked, since all of these values are separated by spaces.
