zsync URL

Post by owencook »

I am unable to determine the URL for "FreeCAD_0.19-22284-Linux-Conda_glibc2.12-x86_64.AppImage.zsync"

Would appreciate if it could be explained on how to get it

TIA

You don't need to. When you auto-update the AppImage (See AppImage#Automatic_updating) the appimage updater automagically know where to find it.

Sorry don't want to hijack this post, but I'm having the same issue here.

I'm wondering if it's because the last file is on github and it has to go through multiple redirection to eventually hit Amazon Web Services servers?
I see to have the same issue with MX Linux (they use SourceForge, which have load balancers).

I know that there's a built-in way to update, it would just been great to have multiple ways to update to the newest version (direct, torrent, zsync)
