Configuring hddtemp after initial emerge via the displayed 'emerge --config =app-admin/hddtemp-0.3_beta15-r3' will replace /usr/share/hddtemp/hddtemp.db with a dump of the OVH mail login page. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge hddtemp 2. emerge --config =app-admin/hddtemp-0.3_beta15-r3 3. run hddtemp: hddtemp /dev/sda Actual Results: ERROR: syntax error at line 1 in /usr/share/hddtemp/hddtemp.db Expected Results: /dev/sda: SAMSUNG SP2504C: 27 C /usr/portage/app-admin/hddtemp/hddtemp-0.3_beta15-r3.ebuild contains the non-functional download URL http://www.guzu.net/linux/hddtemp.db, which redirects to OVH default page. Seems fixed in unstable hddtemp-0.3_beta15-r4.ebuild by the new update-hddtemp.db
It seems like it was a temporary fluke with guzu.net. The URL works just fine now.
