Description landsidel.allen 2011-09-08 21:00:21 UTC

Port x11-toolkits/swt is incorrectly marked broken "does not fetch."  It does fetch, it just takes a while, as the first working server is well down the list of those tried.

Fix: 

Remove or fix broken package source URLs.  Some have gone away entirely, others have been changed to archive ftp/http directories as the version in the port is rather old.

If you have the time, it would be a real help if you identify the failing
sites.

The list of sites tried is in the Makefile, under MASTER_SITES.

Sure.  Will be back in a bit with a diff.

Comment 3 landsidel.allen 2011-09-09 00:11:18 UTC

Due to the age, it seems best to not mess around with 
MASTER_SITE_ECLIPSE just now.  In the Mk/bsd.sites.mk I added a new 
section after MASTER_SITE_ECLIPSE.  The master sites look like they are 
mostly still correct for newer versions of swt.

.if !defined(IGNORE_MASTER_SITE_ECLIPSE_ARCHIVE)
MASTER_SITE_ECLIPSE_ARCHIVE+= \
         http://archive.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/%SUBDIR%/
.endif

And changed the Makefile for x11-toolkits/swt to use 
MASTER_SITE_ECLIPSE_ARCHIVE instead.

Make fetch works as expected.

Not sure if this is the correct way to name an old/archival master site 
or not.

State Changed
From-To: open->closed

Committed the archive site just to swt-- it's not something we should 
put in bsd.sites.mk because it's a temporary solution. If you feel like 
working on it, it would be great if you would like to become maintainer 
of swt and update it to a later version... Thanks for the MASTER_SITES 
update!
