Re: Any help for upstream to create proper release tarballs on Github? (Was: Patch for idba to build with clang compiler)
Hi,
while I can not comment on the advise of Paul since I have no code
hosted at Github I assume you might have not completely implemented his
hint. If I try to download the source package the "tarball inside
tarball problem" remains.
Or do you mean this will be fixed for the next release of idba?
Kind regards
Andreas.
