Hello zsh folks, 

Up until a few months ago, I would use the following URL to download the source archive for the latest version of zsh: http://sourceforge.net/projects/zsh/files/latest

But I noticed a couple of weeks ago that the same URL now resolves to the file zsh-5.0.5-doc.tar.bz2, which only contains the documentation, not the source code. Is there another URL I can use to reliably get the latest zsh source archive?

FYI, here’s what I see when I wget that URL:

% wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/zsh/files/latest
--2014-02-08 12:54:00--  http://sourceforge.net/projects/zsh/files/latest

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

The admin interface doesn't give you much control, but I uploaded the
.gz and .bz2 tar files for the main source again, so now the system
thinks they're the newest.  They shouldn't otherwise have changed.
