Ticket #13186, comment 3
initial v1 3 3 We do indeed preserve a copy of source tarballs for our packages (at least for GPL and similar licenses, due to legal aspect). But before being preserved, those source tarballs have to be downloaded / fetched, obviously. 4 4 5 For numerous distributions, this is handled as part of their packaging workflow. Indeed, their build scripts fetches sources directly from the upstream repo / tarballs (and then preserve it when releasing the built packagesto their package repositories).5 For numerous distributions, this is handled as part of their packaging workflow. Indeed, their build scripts fetches sources directly from the upstream repo / tarballs (and then preserve it next to the built package when releasing the said package to their package repositories). 6 6 7 7 However, the intentionally added unstable part in the filezilla's download url (https://dl3.cdn.filezilla-project.org/client/FileZilla_3.68.1_x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.xz **?h=pdb4gbqtw08yYaxFABrHYg&x=1732651086**) now makes it impossible for distributions to fetch sources from it in their build scripts (as the latter part is unstable and unpredictable).
