Description Frank Steinmetzger 2013-08-26 14:39:56 UTC

I tried to install swt 4.2 on my x86 netbook. I had only set up my own amd64 machine as a mirror, so portage tried to download from upstream. It got a 404 from eclipse.org.
So I went there to d/l the file manually. It turned out that the path in the ebuild is wrong:
MY_DMF="http://download.eclipse.org/...."
should be
MY_DMF="http://archive.eclipse.org/...."

I didn't look into other java packages, but this problem might exist in other places as well.

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
Archive download from upstream fails with 404.
