`eget errata-ai/vale --asset 64-bit.tar` says `open vale: is a directory` about eget HOT 5 CLOSED

Ah, putting the eget configuration in ~/.config/eget/eget.toml (on the XDG path) is a feature that has been added since v1.3.1. For version 1.3.1 you should use ~/.eget.toml. I will release a new version shortly.

What version of eget are you using? I just tried using version 1.3.1 and it worked as expected.

from eget.

Yeah, latest 1.3.1

Is it possible that at the location eget is trying to extract the binary vale to there is already a directory called vale? (Either the current directory or your EGET_PATH if it is set)

from eget.

If I run this from my home directory, there is a value folder there already and it fails - if I run it somewhere else where there isn't, it works. However - this is what my config looks like:

➜ cat ~/.config/eget/eget.toml 

[global]
target = "~/bin"
upgrade_only = true

So, running it from my home directory fails because there's already a vale folder there - even through it's supposed to be putting the download into "~/bin"?

If I run this from my home directory (where there's already a vale folder) eget errata-ai/vale --asset 64-bit.tar --to ~/bin it works as expected and happily puts vale into ~/bin.

So, it looks like my config file isn't working, for some reason? (I didn't notice this initially because I happened to be running eget from ~/bin).
