Description Ben Kohler gentoo-dev 2015-10-21 18:42:32 UTC
Hello,

I've done an automated test of the imagemagick mirror group, and while I believe the results below may have a couple of false positives, it should be close to accurate.  

With this many problem mirrors, and the group only being used by 2 packages, 3 ebuilds total, I think it would make sense to drop the group and use real URLs.  Another option would be to just prune the mirror group down to only http://www.imagemagick.org/download and then no ebuild changes are needed.  Neither of the packages involved have a mirror restriction, so there's no real reason to have such a massive mirror list.

Thanks!
