Description Mark Gibson 2003-09-04 08:52:34 UTC 
I was just doing a stage 1 install on our new server, and the
'emerge system' got stuck on automake, trying to download
automake-1.7.5.tar.bz2 - when in fact it should be automake-1.7.5.tar.gz.
I had to change the SRC_URI in
/usr/portage/sys-devel/automake/automake-1.7.5-r2.ebuild from:

SRC_URI="mirror://gnu/${PN}/${P}.tar.bz2
        mirror://gnu/${PN}/${OLD16_P}.tar.bz2
        mirror://gnu/${PN}/${OLD15_P}.tar.gz
        mirror://gnu/${PN}/${OLD14_P}.tar.gz"

to

SRC_URI="mirror://gnu/${PN}/${P}.tar.gz
        mirror://gnu/${PN}/${OLD16_P}.tar.gz
        mirror://gnu/${PN}/${OLD15_P}.tar.gz
        mirror://gnu/${PN}/${OLD14_P}.tar.gz"


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge automake

It has been working for a long time ... ?  Martin, you changed the SRC_URI
recently ... ideas (no, I have not looked at it yet - near 12pm, and just got
home).

works fine here

Comment 3 Martin Holzer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-09-26 00:16:55 UTC 
why gz ?
bz2 is more smaller
