Description Sławomir Nizio 2012-06-24 20:35:42 UTC 
Bug 336499 changes Portage behaviour regarding pkg_nofetch: it gets called also for non-fetch-restricted packages.
However, manual page of ebuild, section 5 says:

If you turn on fetch in RESTRICT, then this function will
be run when the files in SRC_URI cannot be found. (…)

I suggest to change the description so it says about the case when a file isn't restricted.

Reproducible: Always

This is fixed in 2.1.11.14 and 2.2.0_alpha125.
