Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Pybombs install fetch fail

[Marcus Müller]

I just realized that what I've written was stupid, and a bad thing to
do, for a host of reasons, among these that the fetcher's autodection by
now only works for URLs like
http(s):///something.tar.gz
which isn't every possible source.
SO: Please don't heed my wrong approach, and keep the "wget+" at the
beginning of your http-sources.
