I have tried to emerge livecd-tools for several days now with the same result :

I've tried this from several locations with the same result.

Livecd-Tools is unmaintained - it's functions were moved over into catalyst. Use catalyst instead

I am sorry, but it looks like I was confused (livecd-ng / livecd-tools). Reopening bug - package should be moved off devspace and onto the mirrors

fetches fine for me now

[Comment 4 Chuck Wegrzyn 2004-10-22 03:45:05 UTC]

As of today - the 22nd of October - it still can't be found!

[Comment 5 Chuck Wegrzyn 2004-10-22 04:17:59 UTC]

Sorry...I meant 1.0.7 and not 1.0.0....but the problem is still the same..

It is world readable.  It has a SRC_URI.  It has also been sent to the mirrors.  Have some patience, it'll get there.
