Emerge log

sys-power/iasl fails to fetch required sources. acpica.org redirects to intel.com breaking url. 

I will add a comment linking a related issue and fix from NixOS after my 24 hour new account URL restriction is lifted.

Fixed ebuild

Attached is a fixed ebuild if someone wants to double check my work and push the change. I just changed the SRC_URL. This is my first time updating an ebuild. 
The package itself is sorely out of date, but that's another issue.

bg.enduring772@simplelogin.com, in I understand correctly, you changed http://www.acpica.org/... to https://acpica.org/..., but from my test, 

wget https://acpica.org/sites/acpica/files/acpica-unix-20200717.tar.gz 

still returns 403 (while http://distfiles.gentoo.org/distfiles/dd/acpica-unix-20200717.tar.gz obviously works).

I know that new version has direct url like https://downloadmirror.intel.com/783534/acpica-unix-20230628.tar.gz , but I was not able to found a link to 20200717 there. There is https://github.com/acpica/acpica/archive/refs/tags/R07_17_20.tar.gz , but this file is much larger and looks like a combination of tests and src in a single tar.gz.

IMO (not a maintainer), at this point it is easier to consider old link as rotten, use distfiles.gentoo.org mirror for old version and github.com for new ones.

iasl-20230628.ebuild

I attached iasl-20230628.ebuild for the latest version. It also is compatible with previous releases (just change version in the file name). However I was not able to run tests. `ebuild iasl-20230628.ebuild test` completes with success code (0), but I can clearly see that it outputs errors like:

```
