Description Berk Birand 2004-02-13 14:42:17 UTC
I emerged the linuxgazette package in order to have the latest issue on my pc for offline consulting. I thought that as the new ebuilds become available on a monthly basis, emerge world would get provide the latest version.
However, having recently emerged lg (the 13. of February), I have the issue number 94 dating from September 2003.
I checked the ftp site that carries the tar.gz files, and found that issue 99 was available, although portage doesn't have any ebuild that would download that. I believe that the latest issue of these magazine should be made available regularly, since writing their ebuilds doesn't require any great effort.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge linux-gazette
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
The linux-gazette issue is couple of months old.

Expected Results:  
The emerge world should have emerged the latest verion, issue 99 instead of 
issue 94
