Please don't remove tarballs of previous releases
Issue #229
closed
Once tarball is removed ports become unbuildable.
Ports in various distros can’t be updated instantly, they need to be allowed at least several months.
Now the 1.10.1 tarball s gone, and 1.12 SEGVs, so no working tarball is available.

reporter You can generate a tarball by checking out the tagged version and running “./tools/generateSourceTarball” from the root dir. Could this be a solution for your use case?
This would require a manual action once the port build breaks.
does this always happen? For any image? I understood that it happened for one image (and still it’s unclear when). Did I understand wrong?
It crashes on many or most images.
Something is wrong in 1.12.
