Yes, there should be a message for the user, where to download. $ GENTOO_MIRRORS="" ebuild xerox-drivers-0_p20080123.ebuild fetch [..] !!! net-print/xerox-drivers-0_p20080123 has fetch restriction turned on. !!! This probably means that this ebuild's files must be downloaded !!! manually. See the comments in the ebuild for more information. * The following files cannot be fetched for xerox-drivers: * LinuxCupsPrinterPkg.tar.gz @kensington, I add you to CC, because you fixed the license and fetch restriction
If you bump the version I attached in bug 381073, you can close this bug as fixed.
Actually a version bump will not fix this problem. This version should remain in the tree to support "legacy" printers since it appears xerox has issued new packages for newer printers which don't appear to support older printers. I am not sure why fetch restriction is set on this ebuild. I suggest that fetch restriction be removed because the ebuild is perfectly capable of downloading the package at the direct link: http://download.support.xerox.com/pub/drivers/DocuColor_2006/drivers/unix/en/LinuxCupsPrinterPkg.tar.gz
Removed from the tree
