This was deprecated in favour of the generic http://dl.sourceforge.net, right?
[bardo at damocles ~]# find /var/abs/ -name PKGBUILD -exec egrep \
-H http://.+\.dl\.sourceforge\.net {} \; | cut -d : -f1 | uniq | wc -l
166
There are 166 packages (not counting testing and unstable) that use
those servers.
Instead of that egrep, a sed could be issued, resolving the problem...
even though I'm not sure it'd be a wise action: the tree would undergo
major changes, every changed package should be re-issued, but that's
silly, since it's a change that doesn't affect the binaries...
Maybe makepkg could issue a warning (not an error, 'cause sometimes
the default repo is offline) if it finds that the above expression
matches.
