pkglint --only "https instead of http" -r -F
With manual adjustments afterwards since pkglint 19.4.4 fixed a few
indentations in unrelated lines.
This mainly affects projects hosted at SourceForce, as well as
freedesktop.org, CTAN and GNU.
Changes since puf-0.93.2a:
1.0.0 (16 Oct 2005)
- Fixed command line parsing error that caused -d to be taken as -dc
- -r[+[+]] doesn't imply -p any more, but it advances -p to -pr[+[+]]
- The scope of URL-based switches can be limited with brackets now
- The file supplied to -i is now interpreted as a generic command file
with one command line switch (incl. argument) or URL per line
- Dropped SPEC format - use -O and the new -xy/-xyy switches instead
- $http_proxy is now obeyed if no proxies are specified with -y/-iy
- Scope of -O switch unified with other URL-based switches
- Made -O buffer output when dumping multiple sources to one target
- Added support for "-O -"
- Added -A, -R, -D, -Dl, -Dr, -xr, -xu, -xs, -xo and -xO switches
- Removed -xe switch
- -xE now enumerates per occurrence of -P
- Vast performance improvements of large downloads
- Automatically %-escape [invalid] spaces in URLs
- Various bug fixes
- Change of versioning scheme to something more reasonable
0.93.3 (20 May 2004)
- Don't retry after HTTP errors 403 and 404. Added -xT switch to
enforce the old behaviour (for some really broken servers)
- Don't spawn a separate process for every DNS lookup, but use a
pool of DNS helper processes instead
- Added -xh and -dc switches
- Fixed file corruption on CygWin
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
puf is a download tool for UNIX-like systems. You may use it to download
single files or to mirror entire servers. It is similar to GNU wget (and has
a partly compatible command line), but has the ability to do many downloads in
parallel. This is very interesting, if you have a high-bandwidth internet
connection.
