Curl gives files from sourceforge strange names
Date: Fri, 4 Dec 2015 14:07:45 -0500
Hello,
curl -O -C - -L
http://sourceforge.net/projects/absolute-linux/files/Absolute_14.12/absolute-14.12.iso/download?use_mirror=heanet
Gives the files weird names, this prevents resuming, due to the
difference in file names (hint: notice the ts value?):
absolute-14.12.iso?r=http%3A%2F%2Fsourceforge.net%2Fsettings%2Fmirror_choices%3Fprojectname%3Dabsolute-linux%26filename%3DAbsolute_14.12%2Fabsolute-14.12.iso&ts=1449255232&use_mirror=heanet
absolute-14.12.iso?r=http%3A%2F%2Fsourceforge.net%2Fsettings%2Fmirror_choices%3Fprojectname%3Dabsolute-linux%26filename%3DAbsolute_14.12%2Fabsolute-14.12.iso&ts=1449255624&use_mirror=heanet
To resolve this, I use -o absolute-14.12.iso, but I think that curl
could figure this out, since the file name is in the url.
But curl is yours, so what do you think is the correct behaviour?
Thanks, David
