Description Andreas Fischer 2006-07-28 14:32:13 UTC
With linguas_de, nwn-data tries to download nwgerman129.tar.gz from a fileplanet URL (http://xfer06.fileplanet.com/%5E389272944/082003/nwgerman129.tar.gz), which fails with a "403 Forbidden".

Perhaps another mirror would be more appropriate - IIRC, fileplanet offers no direct downloads, right? It seems to need a login first.

The original URL (as seen on http://nwn.bioware.com/downloads/linuxclient.html#lininstall) for that file is http://files.bioware.com/neverwinternights/updates/linux/nwgerman129.tar.gz and seems to work without any further problems. Using this instead of the fileplanet URL would most probably solve the problem.
Comment 1 Andreas Fischer 2006-07-28 14:58:34 UTC
The french URL seems not to work either (Temporary failure in name resolution). Here is a diff of a revised ebuild. Please check it for correctness. I'd do it myself, but downloading ~300 MB to create the digest takes a while, even on DSL :)

Patches don't really help unless they're attached, not in-line.

Ah - sorry. Here you go.

(Also removed a superfluous newline that somehow crawled in)
