Describe the bug

trying to download boost 1.75.0 (the most recent version in this repository) fails.

Expected behavior

The urls provided by the package point to current boost repositories.

Error output

xmake output:

xmake config

note: try installing these packages (pass -y to skip confirm)?
in xmake-repo:
-> boost 1.75.0
please input: y (y/n)
y
=> download https://github.com/xmake-mirror/boost/releases/download/boost-1.75.0/boost_1_75_0.tar.bz2 .. failed
=> download https://dl.bintray.com/boostorg/release/1.75.0/source/boost_1_75_0.tar.bz2 .. failed

we can also download these packages manually:


https://github.com/xmake-mirror/boost/releases/download/boost-1.75.0/boost_1_75_0.tar.bz2
returns a 404 Page not found.

https://dl.bintray.com/boostorg/release/1.75.0/source/boost_1_75_0.tar.bz2
returns a 403 Forbidden.

Related Environment

I don't think this is necessary.

Additional context

The root causes seem to be:

  1. The xmake-mirror repository does not contain the newest boost versions (1.72.0 is the latest).

  2. bintray is shutting down. Boost has moved to jfrog. See All Source Code Downloads from Main Boost Site Return 403 Forbidden boostorg/boost#502
    the new link seems to be:
    https://boostorg.jfrog.io/artifactory/main/release/1.75.0/source/boost_1_75_0.tar.bz2
