Current behaviour
When I run:
./verify.py pub 27.0-x86_64-linux-gnu instead of downloading the version I told it, it downloads every version in the SHA256SUMS file starting with the first.
The version_os and (also version_rc) are completely ignored which causes wrong files to download when an -rcN is intended.
When I attempt to work around and give it a 1 dash string such as
./verify.py pub 27.0-x86_64 it will start with bitcoin-27.0-x86_64-apple-darwin which is not useful if I only needed bitcoin-27.0-x86_64-linux-gnu.
Update: it will also parse "27.0-aarch64" wrong. Setting rc_version="aarch64" which causes no file found errors. But this is a valid string.
Expected behaviour
I expected it to only download bitcoin-27.0-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz when I run ./verify.py pub 27.0-x86_64-linux-gnu.
I expected rc_version to be set to the -rcN release candidate number as per the comments and documentation.
Steps to reproduce
Follow the instructions in the README.md
If you only want to download the binaries for a certain platform, add the corresponding suffix, e.g.:
But instead of the examples, give it a platform suffix with any dashes and it will ignore the requested platform. Or give “-aarch64” and aarch64 it will be interpreted as a release candidate number causing errors.
