[Skim-app-users] download problem with Skim 1.4.23

[Gildas Hamel]

I tried to update to Skim 1.4.23 and the download stopped at almost 3/4 of the way. I’m on OS 10.12.1. I then went to the web page at http://skim-app.sourceforge.net/mailingLists.html <http://skim-app.sourceforge.net/mailingLists.html> to do a direct download. Also stopped at same point.

Perhaps you should try later, source forge may have some problems with
mirrors. Though I found no problem myself with the download.

I hadn't thought of trying a different mirror. I did and it worked. Thank you. --gildas

My point was not so much about using a different mirror, SF.net should automatically do that for you. It; just that SF.net is very slow in updating its mirrors lately, so the automatically selected mirror may not be up-to-date.

But anyway, the release has a serious problem, so I will replace it very soon.
