bug: Quantized Models not Loading about whispercpp HOT 3 OPEN

It seems to be an issue related to the download mechanism. If you check ~/.local/share/whispercpp, you will see the files being downloaded are much smaller than they should be. For now a solution is to download the models manually from https://huggingface.co/ggerganov/whisper.cpp/tree/main and place in this folder.

By the way, I am on Mac so on Windows and Ubuntu the folder path might be different. Try to figure out where the model files are getting downloaded to.

No, it is definitely not an issue with the download mechanism.
The model downloaded manually fails the same way.

Need to build and install locally of course.

@aarnphm are you still interested in maintaining the package? I see there is a cron job updating submodules, but it has no effect on build, since target commit is specified in rules/deps.bzl.
If you do not plan on maintaining the package, perhaps I will be able to at least set up a CI as GH Action to periodically test with new commits of whisper.cpp.
