Description

I hope I'm in the right place. The .torrents for all installation downloads are incorrect:
When users try to download the .torrent files, they receive a defective .torrent file. They are defective in that the .torrent suffix is missing from all the .torrent files. If the user is savvy enough to realize that the suffix is missing, they might try to rename what they downloaded. That will work if they think to append the filename. But as it is, they are all nonfunctional; users who click on those defective torrents will find that their CD/DVD burner app opens (with an error message about a defective ISO file), rather than their BitTorrent software.

Thanks,
Lance

Hi,

could you clarify which website you visited and which links on it show the described behavior?

Best,
Georg

As far as I know, Georg, the only .torrents we offer are for Leap; so we're talking about all eight links on the main download page for Leap: [[[https://get.opensuse.org/leap/15.6/#download]]]

I could have said that better: It's not the links that are wrong, it's all 8 torrent files themselves that are missing the .torrent suffix. Sorry for any confusion.

I can see the problem in

curl -I https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.6/iso/openSUSE-Leap-15.6-NET-x86_64-Media.iso.torrent
HTTP/2 302

This is something for @andriinikitin
