Description Andre Koster 2003-09-23 10:49:43 UTC
I am attempting a new install and file sys-devl/patch-2.5.9.tar.gz cannot be
obtained from http://alpha.gnu.org.  I keep getting a timed out error.  I have
received this error since 22 Sept 2003.

I am attempting to build the system from bootstrap.. 

Thanks..

This file is available on the Gentoo mirrors so you shouldn't be trying to
fetch the file from alpha.gnu.org at all.
Comment 2 Kurt Lieber (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-09-24 07:20:12 UTC
verified that the file can be downloaded from our main mirror:

http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu/distfiles/patch-2.5.9.tar.gz

marking as invalid.
