hey list,

i'm trying to install else from deken, it shows up in the search results:

elsev1.0beta24.dek     Uploaded by porres @ 2019-09-22 07:11:52

but subsequently fails with:

Unable to download from http://puredata.info/Members/porres/software/else/1.0beta24/else%5bv1.0beta2... [HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found]

this is on linux, pd version == 49.0, [deken]: installed version == 0.5.0

any ideas?

thanks,

ub

Alexandre, I think you don't have to remove older versions, maybe it's worth it to keep them for historical reasons. Or, you could delete them not directly after uploading a new version but a day later, so the newest which shows up in the deken index is always downloadable.

try it now, this is because there was an update to a newer version.

and you can also report 'else' issues at https://github.com/porres/pd-else

cheers

Yeah, I could, I'm just lazy and do it all once, I also announce the release with the github link (and ask to wait till it's up in deken). I didn't do it this time cause it was a quite modest update I put out just cause I gave a talk today about ELSE at PIKSEL.

maybe it's worth it to keep them for historical reasons.

For what it is worth, I keep a historic record of all beta releases on the repository: https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases - what I like about it is that all changes are pretty detailed over there.

not only. according to alex, "else" is still under heavy development and can (and does) break functionality/api between releases.

Yeah, there's at least one breakage at every release. I can be convinced I should start keeping them on deken, but if you look back long enough, in the last 2 years there's been 25 beta releases (about one update a month) and beta25 has *226 new objects* over beta1 - average of 9-10 objects per release. So yeah, I'd say it's been a pretty heavy development indeed and I wouldn't know why would be worth to have versions that are 10 releases old with 100 or so less objects and countless fixes/improvements. And that many releases up in deken seems just like polution to me, at least whilst in this hectic development phase.

so if i have developed a patch on my windows desktop that depends on

else-1.0beta60 and then want to deploy it to my raspberry pi for that exhibition on tate modern, and alex decided to release a new (or two) incompatible versions while i developed my patch, i will be left with no (easy) way to install

I had the idea getting the compiled packages from github was fairly easy, not sure if you're saying it's too much of a hassle. Again, I can be convinced to start keeping a couple of old versions around. In fact, I think I might be actually/finally getting to a more stable phase with this. My pace surely slowed down a bit this last semester.
