ValueClick is listed on various ad-blocking / spam-blocking blacklists. I strongly suggest using a different CPAN mirror, or conform to the traditional Gentoo method of mirroring relevant sources. # grep -l 'SRC_URI.*valueclick.com' /usr/portage/dev-perl/*/*.ebuild

Expected Results: I expected Gentoo ebuilds to avoid using hosts/mirrors associated with companies that frequently appear on spam/ad blacklists. mcummings@gentoo.org 2005-01-04 03:51:17 0000 Gavin, We are in the process of changing perl ebuilds to use mirror: instead of a specific url -it's just a slow process. Will work on this as we can. mcummings@gentoo.org 2005-01-04 07:24:33 0000 done colonel_dolphin@sbcglobal.net 2005-01-18 15:55:50 0000 Oh, ok. All looks good now. Works smoooothly! =)
