Description Ivan Yosifov 2004-12-31 17:08:15 UTC
As of now viruskiller must be manually downloaded (fetch-restrictions turned on).
It is a GPL pile of code. Is there any reason to be F-restricted ?

Reproducible: Always

the upstream provider has a stupid php wrapper around the download

perhaps someone could e-mail him and ask for a direct link

I tried using the onsite feedback form , but I got an internal server error.
In the meantime the source can be downloaded with the following command:

wget --post-data 'file=viruskiller-0.9-1.tar.gz&type=zip'  http://www.parallelrealities.co.uk/download.php --output-document=viruskiller-0.9-1.tar.gz

it all comes back to portage limitation

portage has no way to correlate SRC_URI with A in this case
