Adrien Destugues fa1e07fa7a Package kit: fix error handling in case of HTTP errors HTTP errors can have some content sent with them (a message to display to the user, usually). The package kit would not ignore this and append the content to the end of the downloaded file. This could result in a file larger than the expected size, and in that case, it would keep growing infinitely by adding more error messages to it. Also add some more specific error messages for some HTTP codes, in particular, "invalid range" which is likely to happen if something goes wrong with range requests. Now this case will be detected and the download will stop.

Haiku

Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs

Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.

Goals

Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
Clean, clear, concise code.
Unified desktop environment.

Trying Haiku

Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.

Compiling Haiku

See ReadMe.Compiling.

Contributing

Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!
