Description Paul Thompson 2003-03-11 12:45:05 UTC 
Just went to emerge ethereal-0.9.10 (latest unmasked)
But the SRC_URI is no longer valid; looks like they keep
only the latest version in the path specified, and now thats
bumped to 0.9.11. I got around it by changing:
SRC_URI="http://www.ethereal.com/distribution/old-versions/${P}.tar.bz2"
But unfortunately, _only_ the old versions are there, so it wouldnt work
initially:(

On second thought, you can put more than one URL in SCR_URI, and it will
fail over, so that works...
