Description Dennis Schridde 2010-10-28 22:15:29 UTC
Apparently it is not legal to use $A inside pkg_nofetch(), at least this is what sys-apps/portage-2.2.0_alpha2 displays:
---
 * Download  from http://www.bit-blot.com/aquaria/ and place it in /var/cache/portage/distfiles
---
The filename is missing, which results in the user having no idea what to search for on the website.

Further: Even after figuring out the filename, I still have no idea where on [1] (you probably actually mean [2]) I should find a file named "aquaria-lnx-humble-bundle.mojo.run" for purchase. They only offer a Windows and a MacOSX version...

Due to this confusion I give it Severity=Normal.

[1] http://www.bit-blot.com/aquaria/
[2] http://www.bit-blot.com/aquaria/buy.html

Reproducible: Always

For the 2nd part (In reply to comment #1)

For the 2nd part you might want to send the user to search on bittorrent sites, maybe he can find the file there.

uhh, no, not a chance
Comment 4 Dennis Schridde 2010-12-01 15:03:26 UTC
Then, what's your recommendation? Where shall the user find the file?
