mesa: Fetch Failure

[jxzhu@…]

1./ I did first

sudp port selfupdate

--->  Updating the ports tree
--->  Updating MacPorts base sources using rsync
MacPorts base version 1.9.1 installed,
MacPorts base version 1.9.1 downloaded.
--->  MacPorts base is already the latest version

The ports tree has been updated. To upgrade your installed ports, you should run
  port upgrade outdated

2./

I then executed ---

sudo port install mesa

Here is the output

I am running on Mac Intel under Snow Leopard 10.6.4.

Thanks,

Please remember to use WikiFormatting when pasting shell commands and output.

The file does exist in ​ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/mesa/7.8.2/. Perhaps you are unable to fetch from FTP servers on your network?

The file also exists in ​http://www.buraphalinux.org/download/bls1.4/dvd_source/source/x11/xserver/mesa/ but we had the location wrong in the portfile; I fixed it in r70063. Please let us know if it works now.

Because the only working fetch location was FTP, the distfile also had not been copied to our distfiles mirrors. The primary distfiles mirror cannot fetch from FTP servers, and the backup distfiles mirrors sync from the primary one. Now that the port has a working http download location again, the file has already been copied to the primary distfiles mirror, and should soon appear on the backups.

The http location was previously correct, so I guess buraphalinux.org reorganised. Sure would be nice if freedesktop.org offered a http source…
