Can't update OpenH264

I’ve been trying to update my flatpak packages, however org.freedesktop.Platform.openh264 package can’t seem to update.
with this error
Warning: While downloading http://ciscobinary.openh264.org/libopenh264-2.2.0-linux64.6.so.bz2: While fetching http://ciscobinary.openh264.org/libopenh264-2.2.0-linux64.6.so.bz2: [52] Server returned nothing (no headers, no data)
Anyone else having the same issue?

Hi @phelgm,

Please post the output of:

curl -o /tmp/libopenh264-2.2.0-linux64.6.so.bz2 http://ciscobinary.openh264.org/libopenh264-2.2.0-linux64.6.so.bz2

Because from the error it almost looks like the file can’t be accessed to be downloaded, yet it works fine here.

Edit:

Is there any specific reason you’re not using the one from the community repository?

$ pamac search openh264
[...]
openh264                                                                                                                                                                                                                  2.3.1-1                 community
H.264 encoder and decoder

It can be installed with:

pamac install openh264

Works:

$ curl -v http://ciscobinary.openh264.org/libopenh264-2.2.0-linux64.6.so.bz2 >/dev/null

Well it does download without errors, but upgrading fails.

I;m using it for flatpak

:arrow_down:

sudo flatpak repair

This made it work, Thanks.
