Hi Philip,

 

thanks for reporting this. Zero Install for Windows does have support for
.tar.xz archives but there is a bug in the code that checks <archive>
entries for validity before downloading that causes the error message you
are seeing.

 

I will fix this in the next release and let you know here on the mailing
list.

 

Regards

Bastian

Subject: [Zero-install-devel] windows x-xz-compressed-tar

 

Bastian,

I created a feed for
http://repo.msys2.org/msys/x86_64/msys2-runtime-2.7.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz.

The wizard and the editor work with that file. But when I register the file
set up integration and attempt to use an alias for ps, I get an error.

"The archive MIME type 'application/x-xz-compressed-tar' is not supported."

 

Does 0install support xz compressed tar on windows?
