wget acpcdetect file from NitRC
Hi I am working on a Docker container that uses acpcdetect on this
page: nitrc.org/frs/?group_id=90
specifically, acpcdetect2.0.
I am trying to use `wget` to download the data, but I end up getting a 43KB file, and so I think this is because there is no web-page that actually performs the download.
I tried:
and I get:

Saving to: 'acpcdetect_v2.0_LinuxCentOS6.7.tar.gz.1'
I was wondering is there an easy way to wget from this site? Or documentation for that matter. Thanks!

RE: wget acpcdetect file from NitRC
NITRC allows tool providers to require users to log in to NITRC
before downloading (which allows for better usage statistics than
the simple download count NITRC provides by default). The redirect
you're seeing is NITRC prompting you to log in; allowing direct
download would mean allowing violating the policy when it is in
force.
I would recommend you contact the software developers to see the best way to allow automatically building your container while still supporting whatever prompted that policy. NITRC can certainly help if you need a technical solution, such as providing a second point of download.
