           Summary: popt source url is not responding
           Product: buildroot
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5
         Component: Outdated package
        AssignedTo: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org
        ReportedBy: mjhammel at graphics-muse.org
                CC: buildroot at uclibc.org
   Estimated Hours: 0.0


rpm5.org appears to have gone away.  Launchpad has 1.15:
https://launchpad.net/popt/+milestone/1.15

and BLFS has 1.16:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/cvs/general/popt.html

The broken rpm5 URL affects the build from master if you use any package that
depends on it: oprofile, logrotate, rpm, librsync

Here is a patch to use launchpad instead of rpm5.org.  I picked launchpad only
because its Ubuntu oriented and that seems to have an active support community.

normally a missing / down upstream doesn't matter much, as buildroot then falls
back to sources.buildroot.net, which DOES have popt-1.15.tar.gz. Isn't that
working for you?

E.G.:

--- Comment #4 from Michael J. Hammel <mjhammel@graphics-muse.org>  ---
Ugh.  This is my own fault.  I've been using OpenDNS for some time and now
their redirection to "search results" on failed lookups has bitten me.  I
switched my DNS server to Google Public DNS and sure enough after the failure
the backup download from Buildroot's archives worked.

FWIW, with OpenDNS the search results gets downloaded as a file and Buildroot
attempts to unpack it.  Not sure you can do anything to mediate this response
from a download attempt within Buildroot.

So this is a non-bug.  Apologies for not investigating better.

It would still be interesting to have a working upstream location. I've bumped
it to 1.16 in git using the linuxfromscratch mirror.
