Please add a line where to download from. I believe it would help users to get it easily. Myself have forgotten the download URL so I had to register again first and then I got in email the URL. So I have obtained license twice. :)
The address is: ftp://download.intel.com/software/products/compilers/downloads/

I am a little bit unsure why this ebuild has fetch restrictions, but if this is correct, the provided patch makes it a lot easier to obtain the new release.

Could someone commit this, please?
Comment 4 Tom Fredrik Blenning Klaussen 2006-11-07 15:30:34 UTC
Just thought I should drop a line and say that the patch is good also for the new 9.1.042 build.

I honestly believe that this one should be a nobrainer, please apply the patch, or declare this bug a WONTFIX. After all this bug has been left as NEW for over 2 years.

The pkg_nofetch() is a good idea, but the ftp://download.intel.com location is not officially supported upstream, and won't work for every release. 

I'm afraid people will have to click through the ICC download links.  But it's not really any more annoying than sun-jdk, plus it ensures that people are aware of the license process.

I'll do a version bump later, and include this change.

Committed. FIXED.
