Aaaccckk! Try writing an email to webmaster@kde-look.org, explaining the situation, and that you need a real URL in order to add things to ports. Or, for eath theme, write the author and see if they have a download site directly... >Is there a way I could make the fetch stage get that file from the kde-look >host directly? At the moment I'm hosting the files on my server, specially Only if the webmaster tells you how. :( In fact, you probably want to mail him/her anyway, because themes sites typically will assign a whole new id to an upgraded theme. This plays hell with our idea of software versioning. >the kwinacqua_ace because that one needed a repack so that make would work. Urk. Can you make the port do it? What was wrong? Do you want the responsibility of being MASTER_SITE for this port? -- Alan Eldridge Pmmfmffmmfmp mmmpppppffmpmfpmpppff $PffMmmPppMpmPpfPpm mfpmmmmmfpmpmpppff.
