Description merlin 2015-11-15 20:40:32 UTC
When emerging sys-apps/modutils-2.4.27-r1 it tries to retrieve the URL https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/modutils/v2.4/modutils-2.4.27.tar.bz2. This file does not exist.

Reproducible: Always

looks like the .bz2 files were all purged (probably as part of the overall migration to xz as the secondary format).  the .gz files are still in there though, but i'm not sure there's much to do here.  you already must have a valid GENTOO_MIRROR configured in which case you'll find the .bz2.

i guess we could change it explicitly to mirror://gentoo

modutils is obsolete and has been masked for removal.

Package removed.
