Description Kurt Lieber (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-08-29 10:38:12 UTC 
The neverwinter nights ebuild contains a 1.2GB file that is too large for our
mirroring system to handle.  (policy is no commercial files are mirrored over
100M and no non-commercial files over 500MB)

Please update the ebuild to ensure the resource file isn't fetched by our mirror
script.

Thanks.

Changed in CVS...

Enjoy the new non-fetching frosty goodness!
Comment 2 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2003-08-29 11:35:10 UTC 
we already put RESTRICT="nomirror" when this came up on the e-mail list ... if  
the file is still being mirrored then it's a portage bug
Comment 3 Nicholas Jones (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-08-31 13:23:27 UTC 
Portage can't accommodate non-portage fetching... I have no idea how fetching
is being done presently. Portage only reacts to RESTRICT=nomirror
when FEATURES=mirror is set, and portage is used to download or list
the URIs for the packages. any other methods can't be helped by that
RESTRICT flag.

Fixed in CVS (again)
