Description Jon Hood (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-05-05 12:07:52 UTC
I can't find the pikdev tarball.

!!! Couldn't download pikdev-0.7.1.tar.gz. Aborting.

Even though the "author requested" this not to be redistributed (restrict=nomirror), it's gpl-2. Nothing is stopping us from redistributing this on our distfiles. Any way we can get the package author to reconsider his/her request?

I had no response from the author. He only provides the newer versions (we need to get around to having them in the tree).

I pushed the old tarball to the gentoo mirrors, and changed the SRC_URI for now.

Comment 3 Renato Caldas 2006-06-13 09:11:42 UTC
Aparently the problem is still there, the files aren't on the mirrors.

Please refer to bug 136668, and please either reopen or solve this bug.
Comment 4 Jon Hood (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-06-13 09:18:40 UTC
Renato, the tarball is on the distfiles mirror just fine from what I can tell. I just tried it out here. robbat2's resolution worksforme.
Comment 5 Renato Caldas 2006-06-13 12:00:33 UTC
Are you emerging version 0.7.1-r2 (~x86)? The -r2 ebuild still has this:

> SRC_URI="http://pikdev.free.fr/${P}.tar.gz"
>(...)
># restrict at Authors request
>RESTRICT="nomirror"

Only version -r1 is mirrored.
Comment 6 Jon Hood (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-06-13 12:32:05 UTC
reopening. Renato is correct. -r2 has this problem, too.
Comment 7 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2006-06-13 17:09:02 UTC
fixed again, sorry.
Comment 8 Renato Caldas 2006-06-13 17:14:54 UTC
That's ok. Thanks!

Now I'm waiting for version 0.9.1.. But until then I can work with 0.7.1-r2 :)

Once again, thanks!
