Appereantly the function does not work as advertised on Windows 7.
Do call it, but ignore errors.
Hopefully any real write errors, will be detected when reading
back image instead.
The software requires at least:
- libcurl 7.32.0 (released Aug 12 2013!)
- libarchive 3.2.0 (released Apr 30 2016)
- util-linux 2.27 (released Sep 7 2015)
While technically we could build libcurl and libarchive statically
(like we do for Mac and Windows) if the system has older libs,
it's likely that running the software on systems that old may
give other problems as well (e.g. does lsblk --json (util-linux)
and udisks2 work correctly?), so do not bother.
Closes#16
- We are only using zlib indirectly through libarchive
(For Windows/Mac OS X we do keep requiring zlib headers, as we
need them to build the bundled libarchive on these platforms)
