Description Han Pilmeyer 2004-07-20 05:30:33 UTC

net-dialup/gnome-ppp-0.3.11 can not be emerged. During the emerge it attempts to
download the sources. Emerge constructs the wrong URL for the download due to a
bug in the ebuild file. This problem started with the "double digits" in the last
part of the gnome-ppp verion number.

This is the last part of the "emerge net-dialup/gnome-ppp-0.3.11" command:

>>> Downloading http://www.gnome-ppp.org/download/0.3.11/gnome-ppp-0.3.11.tar.gz

This address is incorrect. It should have been .../download/0.3/gnome... instead 
of .../download/0.3.11/gnome...

This is caused by the following statement in gnome-ppp-0.3.11.ebuild:
MP=${PV%.[0-9]}
SRC_URI="http://www.gnome-ppp.org/download/${MP}/${P}.tar.gz

MP does not contain the correct value now that the last part of the version
number is more than one digit.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
