Miniconda download location changed

The download page for miniconda changed from https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/ to https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/

This breaks the miniconda installation in before_install.sh.

The following line will need to be updated in all cookiecutter-based repos:

cookiecutter-cms/{{cookiecutter.repo_name}}/devtools/travis-ci/before_install.sh

Line 18 in 1a67980

MINICONDA_MD5=$(curl -s https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/ | grep -A3 $MINICONDA | sed -n '4p' | sed -n 's/ *<td>\(.*\)<\/td> */\1/p')

Two current options are:

  • Changing the URL directly
  • Changing from curl -s --> wget -qO-

I'm in favor of applying both changes. The URL change removes our reliance on the continuum.io --> anaconda.com redirect, and the curl --> wget change seems to change our default behavior to be "follow redirects" (though I'm no expert in curl vs. wget behavior)

Lnaden commented

We can actually get redirect follows in =curl with -L flag as well.

Either way, we have to change something since that website has apparently been moved to a new location and the .io is now a redirect.

Can we find any official word on the URL change? This seems to be just a few hours old, so I don't have a sense for whether this is a permanent change or not.

I have a mild preference for the wget since now same cmd used for both the file and the md5.

Can't find anything on twitter, their website, or the common issue trackers
