http://sdlemu.ngemu.com/handysdl.php is down.
Comment 1 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2014-04-15 17:04:49 UTC
Fetching directly from SRC_URI fails with a size mismatch:
!!! Fetched file: Handy-SDL-0.82R1.i386.linux-glibc22.tar.bz2 VERIFY FAILED!
!!! Reason: Filesize does not match recorded size
!!! Got:      104388
!!! Expected: 158228

docs/Handy.html says:

   This HTML document is the README and MANUAL of the free Atari Lynx
   emulator Handy/SDL. Handy/SDL is a free/legal/portable emulator for
   the Atari Lynx handheld by Atari. This emulator does not contain
   any copyrighted materials and was developed entirely from scratch
   by Keith Wilkins.

@Licenses team: If the package "does not contain any copyrighted materials" then it is in the public domain? Can we assume this?
Comment 2 Alexander Berntsen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-04-15 17:37:07 UTC
The statement doesn't make much sense to me. But I don't think anyone can fault us for making your proposed assumption.
Comment 3 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2014-04-17 07:01:04 UTC
Fixed, LICENSE="public-domain no-source-code" plus a comment explaining it.
