Downloads just fine here; Berlios plain suck, complain to them, we can't do
anything about it.

(In reply to comment #1)

Unfortunately you don't get the point.

First, emerge tries to download a package from Gentoo mirrors. This is what you
showed, and yep, it works for you (and didn't work for me because I have a
limited set of gentoo mirrors set up in /etc/make.conf -- but this is not the
bug).

The bug is, if all Gentoo mirrors (and their set can be limited) are tried,
SRC_URI in .ebuild is used -- and this one is incorrect.

Hope I have made myself clear this time. :)

SRC_URI is correct, Berlios is a piece of junk that kills wget. Complain to
them, we can't fix it.

OK, does either of these work for you?

http://download.berlios.de/supertuxkart/SuperTuxKart-0.2.tar.bz2
http://download2.berlios.de/supertuxkart/SuperTuxKart-0.2.tar.bz2

I get some junk index page when I try from 2 ISPs, from one it works... go
figure. Personally I haven't been able to d/l anything from Berlios reliably
for months.

Sourceforge does exactly the same for more than five years AFAIK. Sourceforge
case is handled in a special way by using "SRC_URI="mirror://sourceforge/..."
in ebuild (and some logic within portage -- apparently I don't know where).

Berlios.de case is very similar, so I suppose two things can be done

1. (long-term) Implement mirror://berlios/ support, same as for sf.net

2. (short-term) Put
http://download.berlios.de/supertuxkart/SuperTuxKart-0.2.tar.bz2
http://download2.berlios.de/supertuxkart/SuperTuxKart-0.2.tar.bz2
into supertuxkart ebuild. Both URLs works fine for me (tried from two distinct
hosts in distinct networks).

Eh, you don't understand either. I'm not talking about the redirects, I'm
talking about getting index pages instead of the tarballs *randomly*. As I've
written above, the URLs I've posted are supposed to be correct, yet I only only
get junk via wget from two different ISPs, works from the third one.

Fixed, thanks.
