Unable to download dev tarball for testing on dromedary

Post #1 of 4 (108 views)

Today I attempted to use dromedary to download the release candidate
tarball for perl-5.33.6 from the site provided by the release manager.
Neither wget nor curl worked.

#####
$ wget http://annoyme.scrubhole.org/perl-5.33.6.tar.gz
--2021-01-20 22:41:46-- http://annoyme.scrubhole.org/perl-5.33.6.tar.gz
Resolving webproxy (webproxy)... failed: Name or service not known.
wget: unable to resolve host address ‘webproxy’

$ curl -o perl-5.33.6.tar.gz http://annoyme.scrubhole.org/perl-5.33.6.tar.gz
% Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time
Current
Dload Upload Total Spent Left
Speed
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- --:--:--
--:--:-- 0curl: (5) Could not resolve proxy: webproxy; Unknown error
#####

Can anyone correct this limitation?

Thank you very much.

(accidentally sent as a direct email reply, pasting here...)

It looks like you may have some proxy in the way of your connection.
What is the value of HTTP_PROXY in your ENV? Are you able to fetch other
sites using curl or wget?

Is this tarball available elsewhere ?
As yet, I haven't seen any announcement that perl-5.33.6 is available at
all.

Cheers,
Rob

Hi Rob,

That tarball was just for pre-release testing. I've only just uploaded to
PAUSE
and will send the 5.33.6 release announcement shortly.
