libusb-devel: Git clone failed

[matt@…]

Ok. So I was installing libusb-devel +universal after I installed libtool and I got this error: " Target org.macports.fetch returned: Git clone failed "

I couldn't find any past tickets relating to this specifically. Any ideas what might be causing this error?

Your error was a network timeout, not a repository failure. As per your log:

:info:fetch git.libusb.org[0: 212.116.89.126]: errno=Operation timed out
:info:fetch fatal: unable to connect a socket (Operation timed out)

Please try again, this works for me.

hello, I have a different problem with the same error Error: Target org.macports.fetch returned: Git clone failed

I've got

I have the same issue as leehooni@… looking at the log and trying to manually check the repository it would appear the repository is fine over ​http:// but not ​git://. I'm guessing there has been change at the hosting repo's end and this needs to be reflected in the port?

Hmm.. this appears to be a network change/error on their end. They are no longer passing through the git protocol. I've updated the URL to use http and that seems to work. Fixed in r78015.

Replying to adfernandes@…:

Indeed it was a temporary error with git-daemon on the server after upgrading git. I fixed the problem a day or two ago, and ​git:// URLs work again.

Please do take the minute time to notify upstream when you encounter problems in the future, so that they can actually be fixed, instead of worked around. Thanks!
