Something isn't working
gap_packages
artifact.
#1254
I am currently revising our install instructions and wanted to finally tackle oscar-system/oscar-website#217 -- so I installed a fresh macOS VM on my laptop. Installing developer tools and Julia 1.7.2 went smoothly. Good!
But then installing Oscar.jl itself failed:
Sometimes this kind of issue happens due to the macOS file system not distinguishing case in file names; so if an artifact contains files
foo
andFOO
in the same directory, then expanding the artifact on macOS causes one of the files to be lost/overwritten by the other, and hence the above checksum failure.But what I don't understand is why I've not seen this anywhere else, nor has anyone reported this before, as far as I know?
Ping @benlorenz in case he has an idea.
