it should be: URI="mirror://sourceforge/dshieldpy/${P}.tgz"
Hm, I've tried both URLs but with no success..I don't think that there are gift packages anymore. Guess you have to download the cvs sources directly and make your own tar.gz. ;)
They still work, and i update them twice a week.. If it doesn't work, please try emerge sync'ing the next day, to check for an updated gift ebuild.
It works now. Thanks, Verwilst :) Aniruddha Shankar New Delhi, India
