Description Yuan Liao (Leo3418) 2021-10-20 03:30:36 UTC
In all ebuilds in ::gentoo for this package, HOMEPAGE and SRC_URI use https://github.com/Russell91/sshrc as the base point, but the corresponding GitHub repository is no longer accessible.

It seems that the repository's successor is https://github.com/cdown/sshrc.  Fixing HOMEPAGE and SRC_URI is quite trivial and I could've submitted a PR updating them instead of this bug ticket, but I'd like someone else to affirm that this *is* the new repository for the package.  So, please confirm.  Thanks!

The source archive is mirrored by Gentoo so this package can still be fetched, unless GENTOO_MIRRORS="":

# env GENTOO_MIRRORS="" ebuild /var/db/repos/gentoo/net-misc/sshrc-0.6.2.ebuild fetch
