I've filed this ticket for the Boost project (assuming I'm right)

Curling the file also gives a different checksum

curl -sL https://boostorg.jfrog.io/artifactory/main/release/1.83.0/source/boost_1_83_0.tar.bz2 | shasum -a 256

It was also asked here on SO.

Happening on my Mac and also on GitHub Actions

Ok, created a simple patch for this for RN 0.73.1, but everyone could do this for their version

Install patch-package:

npm install --save-dev patch-package postinstall-postinstall

Modify boost.podspec:

Pod::Spec.new do |spec|

  spec.authors = 'Rene Rivera'

Create a Patch:
- Run npx patch-package react-native to create a patch file based on your changes. This command generates a patch file in a directory called patches/.
Apply the Patch Automatically:
- Modify your package.json to apply the patch after installation. Add the following to your scripts section:
```
"scripts": {
  "postinstall": "patch-package"
}
```
- Now, whenever you run npm install, patch-package will automatically apply the patch to the boost.podspec file.

Duplicates #42109

It started to happen again today....

It started to happen again today....

Yeah happens to me again too...

Same issue : Trying to build via bitrise

me toooo,

Same 🙃

same

Same here.

Same 🥺

same here..... using react-native version 0.70.6

Same here.

same here. react native v 0.69.9

Same here. react native version 0.72.6

Same here. react native version 0.73.1, can reopen issuse ???

I don't see react-native's CI tests failing but I think that's mainly because the workflows save/restore cocoapod cache so they don't fetch boost from the original source basically

Same here

Happens again from yesterday.

Happening it again, just now

Facing the same issue again

Guys!

DO NOT REPLACE HASHSUM

Replace this url
https://boostorg.jfrog.io/artifactory/main/release/1.76.0/source/boost_1_76_0.tar.bz2

with
https://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.76.0/boost_1_76_0.tar.bz2

Here is a PR with the fix #42118, the RN team are on it already.

More info- #42109 (comment)

Thanks!

We have an official workaround and a pinned issue: #42180.
I'm locking this conversation.
