This is frustrating. It's disappeared because a new version came out. Not sure why it has disappeared from the mirrors. I don't know what the canonical solution to situations like this is... distfiles or something in a devspace? FYI, I asked the upstream if they could keep old versions, but they said "no" pointing to the following: http://live555.com/liveMedia/faq.html#old-versions (In reply to Anton Bolshakov from comment #2) > FYI, I asked the upstream if they could keep old versions, but they said > "no" pointing to the following: > http://live555.com/liveMedia/faq.html#old-versions Thanks for this! I wonder if we should just dump stable for this, and possibly go just live (although this is the nuclear option). Ugh. This is not practical for people who need to depend on libraries. :/ yes, it's important to stay on "stable" version. Please mirror it to your own devspace or any other appropriate place The bug has been closed via the following commit(s): https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=449849d8c6d913f03daa5160b738b0b2d84462dd commit 449849d8c6d913f03daa5160b738b0b2d84462dd Author: Sam James (sam_c) <sam@cmpct.info> AuthorDate: 2020-06-17 02:27:50 +0000 Commit: Thomas Deutschmann <whissi@gentoo.org> CommitDate: 2020-06-19 15:25:04 +0000 media-plugins/live: new source for removed tarball (one-off) Unfortunately, upstream *aggressively* purge old releases. They are removed as soon as a new version is made available. Mirror them in my own distfiles directory to allow our mirroring system to pick it up, which it did not have time to do in the past. This should be a one-off, or at least infrequent, if we catch the bump a while before a new one comes out.

Please find a solution which would work in a long run Can you point SRC_URI to a mirror, like this one: https://download.videolan.org/contrib/live555/ You can still verify checksum from the official website before bumping a new version. |
