Works fine. May be the write permissions issue? Does this happen in the console, launched with administrator rights?

Are you sure you didn't enter "print upgrade"? This is the only way I could reproduce the problem.

  • What? You totally lost me there, Bonaparte. [EDIT: oh, I see, now and can't rule that out for sure... what a dumb mistake. :oops:] Yet...

    Today after reading your puzzling answer, it magically worked (output below). I am unable to fathom this. Is it mandatory to run "pint outdated" before "pint upgrade"? That's the only explanation I can muster...

Fosshub is surely a great source of software, but damn, they do like to change stuff on their website. Fixed again.

As for UltraISO, they started to put .exe installer inside .zip. Multi-step unpacking is not supported, and I'm not sure if it's worth implementing, because this kind of distributables is quite rare.

Fair enough, just as long as it's documented. I did compare the downloadable listing and found no changes from last time (almost 3 months ago).

Funny enough, I am still getting the same errors from last time:
  • Code: Select all

    1by1            The script failed due to call depth overflow.
    7-zip           UP TO DATE
    ...
    
    kitty           The script failed due to call depth overflow.
    mp3directcut    The script failed due to call depth overflow.
    mp3tag          UP TO DATE
    ...

Fosshub adds more layers of protection to their links. It's doubtful it's caused by Pint because its userbase is tiny (I think), more likely some other app or script started to abuse it. Anyway, they clearly discourage automated use, and we should comply.
I've added a proper error for errors 403, and soon will replace fosshub links with another sources.

Thanks for keeping this working. 8)

I'm getting that 403 error in pint upgrade command for KiTTY now:
  • Code: Select all

    kitty           403 Access Denied
    mp3directcut    UP TO DATE

@Bonaparte:

FYI, in my last Pint run both 7za and rclone spewed the "The script failed due to call depth overflow." error.
