 Posted: Wed Dec 18, 2024 11:43 pm Post subject: Local overlay for obsolete packages download problem [SOLVD] |
 |
|
For some legacy software I need printproto and libXp that I keep in my local overlay.
The ebuilds, copied some time ago somewhere, use eclass xorg-3 and EAPI=7. Today after sync it seems xorg-3 dropped support for EAPI=7. I wanted to check if just changing EAPI to 8 in ebuild will work
So I did that and tried to remake the Manifest, and that suddently failed.
It failed on being unable to download the source file
| Code: |
ebuild printproto-1.0.5-r1.ebuild manifest
>>> Downloading 'http://distfiles.gentoo.org/distfiles/06/printproto-1.0.5.tar.xz'
--2024-12-18 16:34:48-- http://distfiles.gentoo.org/distfiles/06/printproto-1.0.5.tar.xz

!!! Couldn't download 'printproto-1.0.5.tar.xz'. Aborting.
!!! Fetch failed for printproto-1.0.5.tar.xz, can't update Manifest

However, the ebuild reads
| Code: |
cat printproto-1.0.5-r1.ebuild
# Copyright 1999-2017 Gentoo Foundation

EAPI=8

pointing to repository that DOES have the necessary disfile, moreover I already has it locally. So why does ebuild command decided to download from https://www.x.org/releases/individual/xserver/printproto-1.0.5.tar.xz (which indeed does not exist)
and not from https://www.x.org/releases/individual/proto/${P}.tar.bz2 that ebuild file specifies ??

Because the inherit comes after the SRC_URI, its code is likely setting the SRC_URI value to something else. Move SRC_URI below the inherit if the eclass is wrong. |
