Nightly builds
Hi:
The Apache OpenOffice nightly build packages have .tar.gz extension when in fact they are .tar
Please see
https://ci.apache.org/projects/openoffice/index.html#linux64
or more specifically
https://ci.apache.org/projects/openoffice/install/linux64/Apache_OpenOffice_4.2.0_Linux_x86-64_install-arc_en-US_2016-08-09_04:31:06_1755554.tar.gz
A compressed .tar.gz reduced the download size considerably for the users who'd like to try out the nightly build. Perhaps, somebody can fix that ?
The last nightly build available for download is annotated is 2016-08-09. However, today's build should be annotated as 2016-08-20.
Is the page at https://ci.apache.org/projects/openoffice/index.html auto-generated along with the nightly build ?
Any pointers or suggestions ?
warm regards
Saifi.

Correct. What I wrote refers to the release packages. The development
builds use the "archived" format and do not contain RPMs or DEBs.
Still, if you download the file above properly (like, with wget) you get
the compressed 163M file. If you see the uncompressed (390M) tar
version, then your user agent / browser is getting in the way by
uncompressing the file on the fly. The file is correctly compressed on
the server.
Regards,
Andrea.

Thanks Andrea for the reply.
The nightly build i downloaded is
https://ci.apache.org/projects/openoffice/install/linux64/Apache_OpenOffice_4.2.0_Linux_x86-64_install-arc_en-US_2016-08-09_04:31:06_1755554.tar.gz
There are *no* .deb or .rpm files in the archive.
i have renamed the nightly build tar file that i downloaded
to aoo20160809043106.tar
The resultant compressed file is half the size of the original
file.
Please see below.
$ ls
aoo20160809043106.tar
$ file aoo20160809043106.tar
aoo20160809043106.tar: POSIX tar archive (GNU)
$ ls -ltr aoo20160809043106.tar
-rw-r--r-- 1 saifi saifi 395407360 Aug 21 16:52
aoo20160809043106.tar
$ gzip aoo20160809043106.tar
$ ls -l
total 159948
-rw-r--r-- 1 saifi saifi 163781320 Aug 21 16:52
aoo20160809043106.tar.gz

No, they are .tar.gz ; but most browsers will uncompress .tar.gz files
on the fly and thus you'll see the already extracted .tar file.

If you download it properly (with wget, say) you get a file with md5sum
a655f761ddb45a0e544faf4889c2ec5c which is a compressed gzip file as
expected.

It wouldn't anyway. The tar, in turn, contains already compressed data
(.deb and .rpm are compressed). So gzipping is just to obey conventions
- but we do it anyway.

It is. But it is updated only when a build is successful, and the build
is currently broken. See
https://ci.apache.org/builders/openoffice-linux64-nightly/
We've updated some dependencies and we need software updates on the
build machines. Builds will be "green" again once those systems receive
the needed updates (hopefully in a few days).

Andrea.
