When trying to build acx100, it downloads the firmware from the projects site it looks like. "fw.tar.bz2" from "acx100.erley.org" and am getting a file digest error. Revision = net-wireless/acx100-0.2.4, probably changed it on the offical project page and didn't update the digest in portage yet??? Could you please fix this, thanx! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Whenever a new firmware is found, it's added and fw.tar.bz2 is recreated. I'm going to create a copy on the server called fw-gentoo-0.2.4.tar.bz2 . Whenever a new release is done, just let me know what version you're going to and I'll bump whatever the latest firmware tarball is to that version.
Ya, I guess it's not really a bug, but didn't know how else to inform anyone. Thank you for the reply.

Seems to be changed again (22-Sep-2005).
How about informing upstream that this is bad practice - that they ought to use version numbers for their firmware tarballs?
Getting on that right now in fact.
so what sould we change in the ebuild every time, if this Digest verification Failed appears? is there a workaround except waiting until the corrected ebuild enters portage?
oh, sorry i found it. MD5 f39fe0132b99f075ade71705cafc8b15 fw.tar.bz2 422107 > /usr/portage/net-wireless/acx100/files/digest-acx100-0.2.4 MD5 0231018d80ae21435b5ee584748690cc files/digest-acx100-0.2.4 120 > /usr/portage/net-wireless/acx100/Manifest

Well, as the mirror that was, at least originally, being used was never notified about the use (Bad practice), they couldn't have known that there was any need to institute proper practice. To be technical, we're going to pull those firmware tarballs from that mirror because the current redistribution use is in violation of our (MY) license with TI (as a card owner). The mirror that the firmwares are being pulled from is run by me, btw. (I went a little over on my bandwidth this much, 6MB over to be exact)
Looks like the site currently denies to download the firmware. Is there another mirror available? If one sends the most recent one to me I can mirror it at my site. I got lots of bandwith per month (250GB or so, no idea, never hit that limit). Pat Erley: Feel free to contact me to host that file.
Stefan, would you please take care of this issue? It is currently impossible to merge net-wireless/acx100-2.4 due to a missing download...

Created attachment 73314 [details] acx100-0.3.18 with working server Hi, the ACX100 development is a bit chaotic, and gentoo is actually using an "ancient" version. I fixed it for myself but wasn't aware the driver is in such a wide use in gentoo land. So here is a new ebuild (works with 2.6.14, too). See http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=2892823 for success reports.
fixed with 0.3.20

Broken again... Like, can't we mirror the file ourselves if upstream is unable to use proper versioning? :(
I believe Bug 120478 is a duplicate of this one (or at least addresses the same issue). Thanks
I redigested it, thanks.
The download is broken again. You can host the file on my domain. I've ne bandwitch limit or some thing like that.

Urgh, broken yet again. :-(
use ebuild version 0.3.31 . This version works for me.
thanks to CyberTerrorist we got a stable mirror. I created a separate acx-firmware ebuild and renamed acx100 to acx. acx is now on version 0.3.35.
hi! what's the acx-firmware ebuild? some new acx-firmware ? should i test it? thanks in advance.
it is just the firmware split out, no functional changes. You should already use it when you have emerged acx ~arch. Please leave this bug be, it is RESOLVED, FIXED. Support can take place somewhere else: IRC, email, jabber: nick@im.gentoo.org, mailing lists, ..
