Description Joe Vandermaas 2015-01-12 02:52:25 UTC

the x11-drivers/ati-drivers-14.12-r3 is missing from the attached mirror. emerge reports 404s for all mirrors it trys for this ebuild. I am not sure if this is the perfict spot to report mirror issues.

Reproducible: Always

That is because RESTRICT=fetch is set, causing the sources not to be mirrored. That means you need to follow the instructions set in pkg_nofetch():

 * The driver packages
 * amd-catalyst-omega-14.12-linux-run-installers.zip xvba-sdk-0.74-404001.tar.gz
 * need to be downloaded manually from
 * http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Linux%20x86_64
 * and http://developer.amd.com/wordpress/media/2012/10/xvba-sdk-0.74-404001.tar.gz

I uploaded the distfile to /space/distfiles-local and removed the fetch restriction.
