Gentoo Overlay Missing

Post by terrestrialhost »

I came across an issue when attempting to add the Spring overlay to Portage. It seems like it's being blocked by a 403: Forbidden error.

I'm not sure if the overlay's URL has changed, if there's something I'm doing wrong, or if this is something that can't be fixed from my end.

Here's the bash traffic I got.

Code: Select all

possum ~ # layman -f -a Spring -o 'http://www.springlobby.info/overlay/?p=springlobby.git;a=blob_plai'
* Failed to update the overlay list from: http://www.springlobby.info/overlay/?p=springlobby.git;a=blob_plai
* Error was:
* HTTP Error 403: Forbidden
* Failed to read a cached version of the overlay list from http://www.springlobby.info/overlay/?p=springlobby.git;a=blob_plai. You probably did not download the file before. The corresponding entry in your layman.cfg file will be disregarded.
* Error was:
* Failed to read the overlay list at ("/usr/local/portage/layman/cache_5bbc5508ab872be918df35113d91d1ac.xml")!
* Error was:

Any help would be appreciated...

Need root rights?

I do have root rights, but it was just an incorrect URL. That was the URL I had gotten from your wiki on Gentoo Installation, I'll see if I can edit it when I get a chance so other people don't have the same issue.
