I did an $ emerge --pretend --fetchonly --nodeps $ ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 emerge --pretend --fetchonly --nodeps for every package and downloaded all the files, but the following URIs (marked with ">") are missing: > http://www.tux.org/pub/people/kent-robotti/looplinux/grubconfig-1.17.tar.gz Doesn't exist there. http://www.tux.org/pub/people/kent-robotti/looplinux/grubconfig-1.19.tar.gz is a newer version. > http://files.b9.com/hyperobject/hyperobject-2.6.5.tar.gz Too old. http://files.b9.com/hyperobject/hyperobject-2.8.6.tar.gz > http://www.stephan.co.uk/kmasqdialer/kmasqdialer-2.05.tar.gz http://ftp.kde.com/Networking_Internet/PPP_Chap_SLIP/KMasqDialer_2/kmasqdialer-2.05.tar.gz > http://home.san.rr.com/johninsd/pub/linux/lilo/lilo-22.5.5.tar.gz http://site.n.ml.org/download/20030630090621/lilo/lilo-22.5.5.tar.gz > http://perl.apache.org/dist/mod_perl-.tar.gz > http://www.gn-50uma.de/ftp/pari-2.1/pari-.tar.gz Missing version number? > http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/testing/patch-2.4.21-rc8.bz2 http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/testing/old/patch-2.4.21-rc8.bz2 > http://tech9.net/rml/schedutils/schedutils-1.1.0.tar.gz http://www.tech9.net/rml/schedutils/packages/1.1.0/schedutils-1.1.0.tar.gz > http://www.linguistik.uni-erlangen.de/~msbethke/binaries/hsc-0.929.tar.bz2 http://www.arte.unipi.it/Public/UNIX/hsc-0.929.tar.bz2 These problems could be avoided by putting these files into the mirrors' distfiles directories. Aren't many of these packages licensed under GPL or a similarly open license? By the way, as I don't have Gentoo here, I don't exactly know from which packages these URIs come, but you should be able to find it out by typing either $ emerge --pretend --fetchonly --nodeps guessed-package or $ ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 emerge --pretend --fetchonly --nodeps guessed-package
dunno when you last rsynced, but grubconfig was fixed a long time ago
Sorry, I forgot to mention: I used was the portage tree snapshot of 2003-6-30.
please sync again an report still broken packages
Sorry, I don't have an internet connection at my Gentoo system, so I can't sync there. I'll be away for the next time, but maybe I can do some further investigation in a few weeks.
reminder
$ emerge --fetchonly --nodeps kmasqdialer doesn't work (version 2.05) $ emerge --fetchonly --nodeps schedutils doesn't work (version 1.1.0) See my initial report above for correct URLs. Rest seems OK.
fixed
