Hi! |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
Tomorrow, code.google.com will turn off write access to all |
| 4 |
remaining projects[0]. As such, Gentoo ebuilds which still have |
| 5 |
HOMEPAGE= pointing there should be updated. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
I've already created a list of possible edits: |
| 8 |
|

http://skade.schwarzvogel.de/~klausman/cgc_urls.html |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Note that there are a _lot_ of projects that do not have a new |
| 12 |
home. Some of these haven't seen updates since 2009. Some don't |
| 13 |
even work anymore. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Still, many do have proper homepages (most of them moved to |
| 16 |
GitHub). |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Thus, I'll edit _all_ ebuilds for the specified packages to point |
| 19 |
to their new homes, where available. I'm also considering filing |
| 20 |
bugs against the remainder. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Things I will not touch: |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
- SRC_URI fields |
| 25 |
- Ebuilds where HOMEPAGE is not _exactly_ as in the table linked |
| 26 |
above (this includes ebuilds with more than one URL in |
| 27 |
HOMEPAGE) |
| 28 |
- Any ebuild where the maintainer does the fix themselves or |
| 29 |
explicitly asks me not to. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
The change itself will happen sometime this week to allow people |
| 32 |
to do the changes on their own. |
| 33 |
|

Regards, |
| 35 |
