Description Thomas Andrews 2023-03-30 01:40:29 CEST

Description of problem:
While attempting to sync the Cauldron Beta2 Round 1 isos with Mageiasync, I ran into two issues. The progress bar is inactive, always reading 0%. The download speed box always reads 0 kB/s. 

The byte counter is updating, and the "Remaining" box is changing, so it appears that it is syncing OK, but I don't really know this for sure yet because it's still syncing at this moment. I will report back when it has finished - or crashed.

Redid the xfce4 i586 live iso to be sure. As shown in the attached screenshot,
it's working fine here. Running on an m8 plasma x86_64 install.

That screenshot was after I'd deleted the beta2 iso locally. I cancelled that
and re-copied my still saved beta1 iso and redid mageiasync. Much faster.
Still working ok showing the progress bar and speed.

Screenshot showing it not working in Cauldron for me. Redid the i586 Live Xfce iso to get this shot. MGA9-64 Plasma, fully updated as of about an hour ago.

It finished the downloads and said the checksums were OK, so that part is probably all right. 

But, when it was all done, the "Remaining" timer showed it had about 8 minutes to go. Watching on the first run, the timer reached zero as it should each time.

A release 0.4.5 is coming in testings.
The bug affects only who have non US locale, because number are no more displayed by rsync with comma for separating thousands or dot for the speed.
The update force the usage of LC_ALL=C for rsync commands.
I have added also a check for available space before the sync of each selected ISO image.

Um... I'm in the US, New York State to be specific, and I'm affected.

Tested mageiasync-0.4.5-1.mga9 but now give a crash when I click on "Do sync":

$ mageiasync

Using Mageiasync 0.4.6 to get the Beta2 Round 3 isos at this moment, and this issue appears to have been fixed.

Marking the bug accordingly.
