The following error started to happen recently (in my case in Travis CI runs of a library, which includes ABCL as one of the lisps):

jnaASDF could not load because Java exception 'org.eclipse.aether.collection.DependencyCollectionException: Failed to read artifact descriptor for net.java.dev.jna:jna:jar:5.5.0'..

Could not transfer artifact net.java.dev.jna:jna:pom:5.5.0 from/to central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/): Transfer failed for http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/net/java/dev/jna/jna/5.5.0/jna-5.5.0.pom 501 HTTPS Required

It must be caused by the following change in the maven central repo: https://support.sonatype.com/hc/en-us/articles/360041287334-Central-501-HTTP...

What is the best way to solve this? In other words, how to make sure ABCL uses the HTTPS versions of the central repo URLs?

Best regards,

As noted in https://mailman.common-lisp.net/pipermail/armedbear-devel/2020-February/004035.html, this has been fixed in the upcoming abcl-1.6.1 release.

Placing the following stanza in file:~/.abclrc should fix the problem for existing installations of ACBL:

(progn (require :abcl-contrib) (asdf:load-system :abcl-asdf) (setf (symbol-value (uiop:find-symbol* :*default-repository* :abcl-asdf)) "https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/")))

yers in CONS, Mark
