Is there another “official” / safe / reliable place to get elixir installation packages from, today, and in general, as a backup?
Thank you,
Mark.
Details:
We are following the process outlined on https://elixir-lang.org/install.html#unix-and-unix-like to install on debian and ubuntu.
" * Add Erlang Solutions repo: wget https://packages.erlang-solutions.com/erlang-solutions_1.0_all.deb && sudo dpkg -i erlang-solutions_1.0_all.deb
…"
Usually the process works, but today it has been failing, with the following error:
You can run your own local mirror for deb packages. In a pinch, you can grab the deb files from a machine that already has them installed and copy them to the new machine.
When doing projects in AWS China, we end up caching lots of stuff, e.g. ruby gems. It can be super slow and unreliable to get through the Great Firewall.
Hey Mark, we’re ever so sorry for the issue you’ve experienced with our packages. Shane was right below commenting that we had some issues when migrating DNS. But things should be back to normal now
Again, apologise to all the folks that tried visiting our site or downloading the packages!
