# Check that a published slot serves an installable, loadable binary for the R
# running this script, through one of the URL forms a user can configure.
#
#   Rscript local/verify-repo-routing.R <arch> <codename> <form>
#
# One process per form on purpose: `available.packages()` caches its index in
# `tempdir()` keyed by repository URL, and the `arch` and `flat` forms share a
# URL. In a single process the second form would silently read the first form's
# index and the run would prove nothing.
#
# Forms:
#   arch     https://cran.rpkgs.com/<arch>/<codename>/latest with R's own agent
#   generic  https://cran.rpkgs.com/ with an agent naming the distribution
#   flat     the arch URL with a curl agent, so the edge cannot read an R minor
#            from the request and the flat slot answers instead of a per-minor
#            one
#
# `arch` and `generic` are contractual: they are what the website tells people
# to configure, so a failure there fails the run. `flat` measures what a client
# hiding its R minor is exposed to; it is reported and never fatal.
