Description Gabriel Devenyi 2005-03-24 16:33:10 UTC

For a quite a while now ftp://jeuxlinux.com/bioware/Neverwinter_Nights/nwresources129.tar.gz has not existed, as a result, emerging nwn with USE=nowin results in a failure to install, can we find a new source for this file?

Comment 1 Gabriel Devenyi 2005-04-09 22:04:43 UTC

Is it possible to get a distribution license from bioware so that gentoo can mirror this directly?

ftp://jeuxlinux.com/bioware/Neverwinter_Nights/nwresources129.tar.gz is still working. Try passing --passive-ftp to wget.

Comment 4 Gabriel Devenyi 2005-05-09 05:58:58 UTC

So that works, any way we can set that/tell the user that its needed?

Comment 5 Gabriel Devenyi 2005-07-28 17:51:18 UTC

So this is fixed, the ebuild should notify the user somehow, but thats 
unrelated to this.
