Description of problem: broken URL in knm_new-fonts package description URL : http://www.din.or.jp/~storm/fonts/ Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): knm_new-fonts-1.1-2.fc8 Steps to Reproduce: rpm -qi knm_new-fonts
If you look at SPEC you can see its already written same thing there by package maintainer => ## the following upstream URL is a dead link anymore. URL: http://www.din.or.jp/~storm/fonts/ Source0: http://www.din.or.jp/~storm/fonts/knm_new.tar.gz
Yes, that's right. so what's the expected fix here? I don't think I can provide the useful information for that.
Could we use something like: http://ftp.riken.go.jp/pub/misc/Japan/knm/readme http://ftp.riken.go.jp/pub/misc/Japan/knm/knm_new.tar.gz (slightly older) instead? Otherwise maybe it is better just to remove the urls?
That's one of the mirror site actually. I'm not comfortable with saying the mirror as the master. so removing URLs sounds good to me though.
I also think that if there is no upstream URL left then URL field should be removed from package description altogether.
Fixed in 1.1-3.fc9.
confirmed
