Do we trust every link on google to point to a malware free version of the package ? I think it's ill advised to take the human out of the loop. At most, list the validated download url's found... along with a warning from all but a few trusted url's. Scott On 18-07-23 03:58 PM, Ponce Castaneda, Guillermo A wrote:
Hello team,
I am giving it another try to introduce and automatic package downloader to the mirror creation process, this time I managed to actually write it on python3.
The goal of this tool is still the same, to avoid the hassle of manually go looking and downloading failing packages from Google and just run a single command instead.
You can go and review the code here: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/585009/ I really appreciate any feedback, specially opportunities of improvement and any kind comments.
Thank You - Guillermo Ponce
