Bug 2968 – Digest-MD5 ebuild is broken

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description xtra 2002-05-23 13:55:38 UTC]

if you don't download the source file from ibiblio the ebuild fails because it
refers to Digest-MD5-2.17.tar.gz which no longer can be found on cpan (see url)

>>> emerge dev-perl/Digest-MD5-2.17-r1 to /

!!! Couldn't download Digest-MD5-2.17.tar.gz.  Aborting.

update version number of Digest-MD5 and committed it to portage.

[Comment 2 Khayyam 2004-01-02 19:38:16 UTC]

this breaks on ppc as it was unmasked while digest-base-1.05 is
still masked.

!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy "dev-perl/digest-base" have been masked.
!!!    (dependency required by "dev-perl/Digest-MD5-2.33" [ebuild])
 
!!! Problem with ebuild dev-perl/Digest-MD5-2.33
!!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem.
 
!!! Depgraph creation failed.
