[Bug]: Updating a local .wacz file is impossible #289

ArchiveWeb.page Version

v0.13.3

What did you expect to happen? What happened instead?

Updated .wacz files do not show any new data if filename is the same. When downloading a web archive as a .wacz file and saving it in the same path as another web archive, archiveweb.page acts as if the original version was all that was ever saved. This happens when adding or deleting pages, the initial version of the .wacz remains the only version one can browse even if all pages are changed or deleted. I suspect the full .wacz is being cached somewhere without the user's input, with no code to update it.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

  1. Create a new web archive, download any webpage
  2. Download the archive as a .wacz and store it anywhere on your machine
  3. Without importing the local archive, add a new page to the existing archive in archiveweb.page
  4. Download the archive again, without changing its filename
  5. Overwrite the local .wacz with the new version
  6. Note there are absolutely no observable changes
  7. Change the name of the .wacz file. Suddenly, all changes are visible
