[PATCH v3 0/1] ci: update caskroom/cask/perforce to new location

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Running CI on Mac OS X in Azure Pipelines is currently broken due to a moved
homebrew package.

Change since v2:

 * The commit message was improved (thanks Gábor).

Change since v1: -The step is now more robust (by pulling homebrew-cask and
trying again if the pull failed).

Thanks, -Stolee

          So let's try to call `brew cask install perforce` first (which is what
          that error message suggests, in a most round-about way).
      
     -    The "caskroom" way was added in 672f51cb (travis-ci:
     -    fix Perforce install on macOS, 2017-01-22) and the justification
     -    is that the call "brew cask install perforce" can fail due to a checksum
     -    mismatch: the recipe simply downloads the official Perforce distro, and
     -    whenever that is updated, the recipe needs to be updated, too.
     +    Prior to 672f51cb we used to install the 'perforce' package with 'brew
     +    install perforce' (note: no 'cask' in there). The justification for
     +    672f51cb was that the command 'brew install perforce' simply stopped
     +    working, after Homebrew folks decided that it's better to move the
     +    'perforce' package to a "cask". Their justification for this move was
     +    that 'brew install perforce' "can fail due to a checksum mismatch ...",
     +    and casks can be installed without checksum verification. And indeed,
     +    both 'brew cask install perforce' and 'brew install
     +    caskroom/cask/perforce' printed something along the lines of:
     +
     +      ==> No checksum defined for Cask perforce, skipping verification
     +
     +    It is unclear why 672f51cb used 'brew install caskroom/cask/perforce'
     +    instead of 'brew cask install perforce'. It appears (by running both
     +    commands on old Travis CI macOS images) that both commands worked all
     +    the same already back then.
     +
     +    In any case, as the error message at the top of this commit message
     +    shows, 'brew install caskroom/cask/perforce' has stopped working
     +    recently, but 'brew cask install perforce' still does, so let's use
     +    that.
      
          CI servers are typically fresh virtual machines, but not always. To
