I wanted to get detailed information for the gentoo package: dev-util/cvsweb-1.112 When I checked the referenced homepage the server response was "404 ~zeller not found". It seems as if MR Zeller has finished his study in Heilbronn and the homedir was removed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge -s dev-util/cvsweb 2. 3. Actual Results: * dev-util/cvsweb Latest version available: 1.112 Latest version installed: [ Not Installed ] Size of downloaded files: 36 kB Homepage: http://stud.fh-heilbronn.de/~zeller/cgi/cvsweb.cgi Description: WWW interface to a CVS tree License: BSD ========================================================================== Result was fine, but information about homepage was outdated. Expected Results: Report a valid link to a software developer group like 'http://www.freebsd.org/projects/cvsweb.html'
Created attachment 50490 [details, diff] updates HOMEPAGE and SRC_URI This fixes the link for the homepage. SRC_URI was changed to fetch from a mirror as I could not find an official tarball on the net.
I applied the patch and did the following retest: - emerge -s is now showing a valid homepage with detailed information about cvsweb - emerge -f cvsweb did not show any problems.
Sorry for the delay - fixed in CVS.
