Description Gleb 2020-05-06 00:40:21 UTC
The homepage link points to this page:
https://0pointer.de/blog/projects/rtkit

This link doesn't exist anymore (redirects to https://0pointer.de/), and it looks like the original author no longer maintains the project.

The correct homepage should be this one:
https://github.com/msekletar/rtkit

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Marek Szuba (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev 2020-05-09 10:41:12 UTC
Huh, that's new - even when I pushed 0.13 into the tree Lennart's page was still available. I'll update the ebuilds. That said, msekletar/rtkit hasn't seen any activity since 2014 and we use heftig/rtkit instead - this is the de-facto main rtkit upstream now, in that it both is active and has been officially embraced by at least Arch (which is where this fork originated from), Debian, and now Gentoo.

    sys-auth/rtkit: update HOMEPAGE
    
    Even though to the best of my knowledge there still hasn't been an
    official change of ownership of this package, Lennart's page about
    RealtimeKit has disappeared some time since early April. Use the front
    page of the GitHub project from which we get release tarballs instead.
