Pretty cool, however now users are unable to install these ports while they are perfectly installable. I suggest to change BROKEN to something like MASTER_SITES_DEAD and either state that we mirror distfiles forever or find another mirror (which would be way too strange since we mirror distfiles forever anyway). I could suggest my own mirror.amdmi3.ru, however it only has 150 MB free space left, and I'm not sure all ports with dead master sites will fit. Gotta check though. -- Dmitry Marakasov . 55B5 0596 FF1E 8D84 5F56 9510 D35A 80DD F9D2 F77D amdmi3@amdmi3.ru ..: jabber: amdmi3@jabber.ru http://www.amdmi3.ru
