The "samba" mirror list in profiles/thirdpartymirrors contains only one mirror, and it's the official upstream: $ grep samba profiles/thirdpartymirrors samba https://download.samba.org/pub/samba/ According to the devmanual, it would be a small improvement to inline that URL into the two packages that use it (net-fs/samba and sys-auth/pam_smb): https://devmanual.gentoo.org/ebuild-writing/variables/index.html#third-party-mirrors Afterwards, the "samba" mirror can be dropped from profiles/thirdpartymirrors, saving us the trouble of curating the list by hand in the future.
As a longtime thirtpartymirrors critic and member of samba team, I'm in favor.
