Linux download links not working on https://getmailspring.com about mailspring HOT 7 CLOSED

Hey folks! For the moment I've taken down the builds above—linux builds are coming soon but aren't quite ready yet. I'm still creating binaries and testing them (so there /are/ builds on S3) but there are some pretty significant known issues on different linux distros. Stay tuned! Should only be another day or two.

It says the Snap is coming soon, but I hope that doesn't mean to imply that .deb packages /aren't/ coming soon, I use a deb-based distro that doesn't support snaps.

from mailspring.

none of the links/images work. however, the download URLs are https://updates.getmailspring.com/download?platform=linuxDeb for debian and https://updates.getmailspring.com/download?platform=linuxRpm for redhat based systems. The RPM url works, though the icon does not work. The .deb (the one i need!) gives me an error:

This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.

P.S. the way I found the URLs was by changing the platform argument in the URL from 'darwin' to 'linux' and I received a 404 error page with the following:
{"statusCode":400,"error":"Bad Request","message":"child \"platform\" fails because [\"platform\" must be one of [darwin, linuxDeb, linuxRpm, win32]]","validation":{"source":"query","keys":["platform"]}}

The possible selections are there, listing linuxDeb and linuxRpm.

Not sure if this is considered a security flaw...

Okay, the link to the deb package seems to actually be:
https://mailspring-builds.s3.amazonaws.com/client/20839f9b/linux/mailspring-1.0.0-amd64.deb

The "linuxDeb" link above points to almost the correct URL; the 'M' in mailspring should not have been capitalized.

@V3XATI0N , hopefully this works for you!

@ldartez The workaround works. Thanks 👍

I just want to note that the two URL's in my first comment above now work again and point to the respective 1.0.1 versions of the binaries.

Hey folks—I've gone ahead and put the links on the download page (so you can download .deb and .rpm packages for Linux.) I was hoping to wait until we had a Snapcraft package, because it will enable autoupdates for Linux users. Currently, you need to come back to the downloads page and get it again when a new version is released. The Snap is taking more time than I expected to get working, so this will do for now! Gonna go ahead and close this.
