Can't post VIPC?

I was trying to update a set of code I have posted online here.  Instead of posting a zip with a bunch of files I tried posting a VIPC which is a package of packages.  First it complained that there wasn't any labels but after messing around for a bit I think I got past that.  But after I hit publish I got an error:

 

"The attachment's hooovahh can frame signal conversion 2018 2.0.0.10.vipc content type (application/octet-stream) does not match its file extension and has been removed."

 

I tried attaching it here but guess what, I can't do that either.  Here is a link to the file I am trying to attach.

Hi @Hooovahh,

 

While we have '.vipc' as a valid file extension for attachments, it appears there is a mismatch in what the upload looks like to the system (application/octet-stream) and the file extension. I was able to reproduce the error. We will investigate further, but for the moment I suggest uploading as a zip. Thank you for the file example to test against.

 

Best,

@Hooovahh,

 

We were able to address this issue. I've attached the original file you mentioned. Let me know if you have any problems with it.
