Aren't these files supposed to be downloaded automatically?

Ideally yes, but old GMT versions may fail to download these files on GitHub Actions (see https://github.com/GenericMappingTools/pygmt/actions/runs/7619206138/job/20751859452):

Ah got it, so this is needed for the GMT legacy tests (using GMT 6.3.0 and 6.4.0). I see that the path has changed from ~/.gmt/server/gmt_data_server.txt to ~/.gmt/gmt_data_server.txt

Do we need to copy ~/.gmt/gmt_data_server.txt to ~/.gmt/server/gmt_data_server.txt though for the GMT Legacy tests?

My local tests tell me that we have to. Will do it now.

Done in 49178fc and the same error is gone in the GMT Legacy Tests workflow (https://github.com/GenericMappingTools/pygmt/actions/runs/7677658040/job/20926661680?pr=3020).

gmt_data_server.txtandgmt_hash_server.txtare two files needed for GMT remote files. These two files were located in the~/.gmt/serverdirectory for GMT<=6.4, but since GMT 6.5, these two files are in the~/.gmt/directory.
