typo corrected
Comment 3 Kurt Lieber (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-08-16 06:34:56 UTC
the link shown on packages.g.o is the same link that is in the grun ebuild
itself.  reassigning to desktop-misc herd as this is not a packages.g.o problem.
Comment 4 Attila Stehr 2005-08-16 07:00:38 UTC
The site doesn't seem to exist anymore - haven't found a (new) homepage using
google.

What about mailing the author - any replies?
What about just removing that package if it's probably not maintained anymore. 
Comment 5 Jonathan Smith (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-08-23 17:59:47 UTC
dead upstream isn't necessarily a reason to kill a package. as long as it
doesn't develop security problems, it might as well stay on the off chance that
people use it

http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/grun <--- debian can't find the page
either, so i'm marking this CANTFIX

Comment 7 Thomas Holder 2006-02-14 08:46:39 UTC
The current ebuild refers to a gentoo mirror for the diff file, but that's a dead link. The file is available from debian mirrors. The ebuild needs the following changes:

MY_P=${P/-/_}
patchversion="14"
SRC_URI="mirror://debian/pool/main/g/grun/${MY_P}.orig.tar.gz
    mirror://debian/pool/main/g/grun/${MY_P}-${patchversion}.diff.gz"

src_unpack() {
    unpack ${A}
    epatch ${WORKDIR}/${MY_P}-${patchversion}.diff
}

hence ^ reopening
Comment 9 Krzysztof Pawlik (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-02-16 03:32:22 UTC
Thanks, fixed.
Comment 10 Attila Stehr 2006-02-16 03:47:57 UTC
So we should put this link on the packages.gentoo.org site too, right?

http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/grun
Comment 11 Krzysztof Pawlik (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-02-16 03:52:40 UTC
packages.gentoo.org takes the information from ebuilds, so it will pick up the change soon.
