• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE
• Product: Gentoo Linux

There is a fetch restriction for media-sound/shoutcast-server-bin-1.9.8. In the ebuild on lines 26:28 it says

pkg_nofetch() {
	elog "Download ${A} from ${HOMEPAGE} and copy it to ${DISTDIR}."
}

${A} and ${HOMEPAGE} are the following:

HOMEPAGE="http://www.shoutcast.com/license"
SRC_URI="sc_serv_${PV}_Linux.tar.gz"

After a little digging on Shoutcast's website, I was able to find the referenced file at http://download.nullsoft.com/shoutcast/tools/sc_serv_1.9.8_Linux.tar.gz

To make it easier for any future users who need to emerge this package, can we update the ebuild to reflect the valid URL, for example

HOMEPAGE="http://download.nullsoft.com/shoutcast/tools/"

That's not a patch. This is a patch:

Jeroen Roovers' patch is correct, how can I submit the patch to the ebuild?

I think this bug can be closed, media-sound/shoutcast-server-bin isn't available anymore in the gentoo main tree.
