Re: Error installing 'master' on Manjaro VM


maybe it is the file/path length, or it is being stored utf16 or utf32 and thus exceeds the number of bytes per file name. 72chars x4(bytes per character for utf32) is 288 bytes. There may be a 255byte filename limit on the system. ? should be easy enough to test. a 63 character file name should be ok, but not a 65 character file name.

After re-installing a very outdated Manjaro VM, I tried installing (within the last hour) the 'master' version according to the Wiki instructions and with the openSUSE download server added prior to "[core]" in pacman.conf. `pacman -Sy home_gambas_master_ArchLinux/gambas3` failed:

A second run of the same sync command, a few minutes later, yielded even more files that failed to download:

I don't know why OBS has this problem.
