Description
The source file: hdf5-1.8.5.tar.bz2 is not on any of the http servers (older files are).
It may be on one of the listed ftp servers, but I can't get at them from behind my firewall.
It would be great if this file could be put on the http://distfiles.macports.org/ server or another http server.

Our distfiles mirror can't use FTP either. If there are any HTTP sources we can add them to the portfile, otherwise I guess you could ask upstream to make their files available via HTTP?

How is this fixed? The current hdf5-18 distfile is still not on any HTTP servers.

Sorry, misunderstood the problem. I added a http-accessible master_site in r73483.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
NOTE:
I tried it outside out firewall, and it turns out that:
ftp://ftp.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/prev-releases/hdf5-1.8.5/src/
is the only source of that file -- it would be really nice to have an alternative.
It seems that it would be pretty easy to write a script that would go through and put copies of source from every single port on a macports server: http://distfiles.macports.org/ , for instance. Is there a disk space limitation? What is the policy about putting source files there?
