Description Kalin KOZHUHAROV 2004-01-12 04:00:57 UTC

Just emerge sync-ed and tried to update to net-ftp/ncftp-3.1.6, but I couldn't get the source...

Apparently the folks from ncftp has removed the old one and put 3.1.7 instead.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge sync
2. emerge ncftp
3.

Expected Results:  
Download and emerge the package.

Looking at http://www.ncftp.com/ncftp/doc/changelog.html

isn't it time to bump the stable version?

Hmm...

I guess I was too qick to report this bug (too much bloob coffeine?). Sorry.

I use ftp.ecc.u-tokyo.ac.jp as my closest (=fastest) mirror and apparently the file was not there, so emerge tried to fetch it from the original server.

Unfortunately, I cannot confirm it now, as it works (from the same mirror).

Thanks for quick response.
