You can't currently put http links in the "package.list" file...
only a list of files contained in that folder :)

Example:
3dscraft.3dsx
3dscraft.smdh
testfile.txt

...and so on

When I'll have time I'll implement http downloading from urls

New error: The smdh path shown on the top screen is correct but it still fails to download the file. Downloading the .smdh directly via Firefox works though.

I just tried to download ReinandUpdater (see packages.json:
Code:
{"repo":{"name":"3DS CFW Kit","author":"AidanLumina","website":null},"packages":[{"name":"NASA","author":"Rinnegatamante","short_description":"CIA manager for 9.3.0+","category":"Other","website":"http://rinnegatamante.it","type":"3ds","version":"1.0.0","dl_path":"3ds/NASA/","info_path":"3ds/NASA/NASA.sdmh"},{"name":"ReinandUpdater","author":"Reisyukaku","short_description":"Reinand Updater","category":"CFW","website":"http://reisyukaku.org","type":"3ds","version":"2.1b","dl_path":"3ds/ReinandUpdater/","info_path":"3ds/ReinandUpdater/ReinandUpdater.sdmh"}]}
) but back in the HBL, nothing's changed. :/

You can take a look at my repo here.

Currently it only supports direct downloading of .3ds/.3dsx/.cia files from repos. I'll check if I can implement a .zip file decompression into installMii. Thanks for your advice :)
I don't think this is that urgent as users can use ZIP3DSFX to build their own ZIP-based .3dsx setup app but it's also easy to implement as the code is already written; see the source of ZIP3DSFX by @d0k3 . :)

So far really I like this app, but I have been trying to setup a personal repo for my friends so far once I add a fifth app or game installMii is unable to load the repo. stopping at "Repository 'Repo' --> [LASTEST]". works fine if I remove any of the apps as long as there isn't 5 in the packages.json.
