net-misc/axel-2.4-r3:HOMEPAGE=http://axel.alioth.debian.org/ net-misc/axel-2.4-r3:SRC_URI=http://alioth.debian.org/frs/download.php/3016/axel-2.4.tar.bz2 Newer versions in the tree are correctly pointing to Github where 2.4 is from 2009. Perhaps newer versions should be stabilized, and 2.4 dropped.
New ebuilds no longer have this issue.
