Bug 15251 – improper uri formation when downloading multiple distfiles (same ebuild) from original site

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Portage Development

[Description George Shapovalov (RETIRED) 2003-02-06 20:30:17 UTC]

When processing app-sci/gmt (new submission) - the ebuild listing 5 sources in
SRC_URI, I encoutered the following:

groug gmt # ebuild gmt-3.4.2.ebuild fetch

!!! Couldn't download GMT_high.tar.bz2. Aborting.

------------end listing---------------------

Please notice how it tries to download GMT_high.tar.bz2 from the mirrors and
what looks like concatenation of all SRC_URI's from the original site.

Quick check of the portage ChangeLog shows up one recent change that might be
related:
03 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <[e-mail]> portage.py: Added
  quotes to fallback checksum code to ensure it works on space-containing
  filenames.

And yes, I observed this behavior with both -r10 and -r11. No idea if this was
the case earlier as well.

Created attachment 7993 [details]
gmt-3.4.2.ebuild

the "offending" ebuild

Ok, I think I found it. There were some spaces missed in the additional definition of SRC_URI downstream :(. Looks like it is working now. Though strange how it seemed to behave correctly while hitting mirrors...
