Description A. Person 2006-10-19 08:48:12 UTC 
Portage can't seem to download the vmware-workstation-5.5.2-29772 distfile.
Comment 1 Chris Gianelloni (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-20 13:50:06 UTC 
Try again.  We don't mirror masked packages and VMware's servers aren't always reliable.
Comment 2 A. Person 2006-10-20 14:25:06 UTC 
I've been trying regularly for a few days before I submitted the bug, and ever since.  I just tried again too.  Maybe the path has changed?
Comment 3 Mike Auty (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-20 15:35:54 UTC 
Last I saw it's not on their third mirror, and it returns 403 access denied when trying to retrieve it from their second mirror.  It's possible that you have to go through their site, agree to the license and download it that way?
Comment 4 A. Person 2006-10-20 19:53:44 UTC 
That works.  Feel free to close if you're satisfied.
Comment 5 Preston Crow 2006-10-31 07:48:21 UTC 
If this requires a manual download, then the ebuild should be changed to reflect that.
Comment 6 A. Person 2006-12-08 15:39:30 UTC 
This doesn't seem to be a problem with 5.5.3.
Comment 7 A. Person 2006-12-08 15:41:06 UTC 
Closing.
