cannot download files from portableapps.com

[ghost]

I attempt to install some portable software (e.g. https://github.com/NilsonPark/scoop-portableapps/blob/master/bucket/LibreOfficePortable.json, https://github.com/NilsonPark/scoop-portableapps/blob/master/bucket/OpenOfficePortable.json). These files are large but can be downloaded in seconds. However, the hash check is always incorrect and inconsistent. The download files are incomplete and much smaller.

If I paste the download URLs to browsers, I can download the files correctly. I cannot figure out what is wrong. Thank you.

The output is shown as below.

I locate the problem at Line 382 of install.ps1 (https://github.com/lukesampson/scoop/blob/master/lib/install.ps1#L382). It seems the files are not correctly downloaded.

Finally, figure out what happens. If one want to download from portableapps.com, the referer should be empty.

@r15ch13 originally found this trick and fixed this issue at this commit.

@nickbudi removed this setting at pull request #2401 since he found Portableapps.com switched its host to portableapps.duckduckgo.com and strip_filename is no longer required.
