Description Michael Orlitzky gentoo-dev 2013-09-01 17:34:46 UTC 
Under "Basic epatch", this page states,

  For larger patches, using mirror://gentoo/ rather than files/ is more appropriate.

However, according to,

  https://devmanual.gentoo.org/general-concepts/mirrors/index.html#suitable-download-hosts

this is deprecated in favor of using one's devspace (dev.gentoo.org:~/public_html).

Yes I can. I'm in the middle of my quizzes right now (thus all the devmanual bugs), but when I'm done, I'll go back and fix all of these.
