Details

With the switch from wget to curl in default makepkg.conf, the default behavior has changed.

wget accept cookies except if the "no-cookies" is explicitly set. To get the same accepting cookies behavior the '-b ""' option must be added to curl.


The problem happens with this url: http://dispcalgui.hoech.net/download/dispcalGUI.tar.gz
This URL is used in this PKGBUILD I'm maintaining: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=25883
   makepkg-curl-cookies.patch (0.7 KiB)
This task depends upon

Leaving this to Dave as he is the curl expert. I am OK with the idea.
