Description Enne Eziarc 2017-07-29 15:57:08 UTC
$HOMEPAGE is 404, and $SRC_URI is a DNS error.

Thank you.
I suggest to tree clean the package, if we can not fix that.

That's nonsense. If it stil works, why would you remove it. Really?
Comment 3 Jonas Stein gentoo-dev 2017-07-30 08:56:10 UTC
Please read carefully. There was no request to remove a working package.
"I suggest to tree clean the package, if we can not fix that."

This ticket is about two bugs, it does not install without mirrors.
This should be possible, if it is maintained and there is a working SRC_URI.

It would be great, if it can be fixed, because the following packages RDEPEND on it:

x11-themes/fvwm-crystal-3.2.3-r1 
x11-themes/fvwm-crystal-3.2.5-r1 
x11-themes/fvwm-crystal-3.4.1-r1

If upstream did not move, one could at least upload the source to one of the famous repositories. So this package can be repaired, if it is maintained.

Fixed in 1.0.2_p5.

Please read carefully?! The only way this could fail is when our own mirroring system fails.

You closed the ticket as fixed, but the homepage is still broken as reported.
Did I see an old version, or did you forget something?

The URL can be updated, if there is a new one, or set to 
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/No_homepage, if there is no homepage.
