Would it help to change the order of the master site list? I assume
that there are some which have everything.

Unfortunately that wouldn't be much help to people who use MASTER_SORT.

Yes.

I believe the best way would be to cleanup Mk/bsd.sites.mk. In
particular MASTER_SITE_FEDORA_LINUX.

I plan to have a look at a more recent linux distribution for our linux_base. If I get the time, and if it will be fedora based (probably it will, as it may make the update a little bit more easy), this may mean the list will go back to what it was...

ports-mgmt/distilator can help identifying those sites. For instance:

$ distilator /usr/ports/emulators/linux_base-f10/

Result:
http://people.freebsd.org/~ehaupt/misc/linux_base-f10-distilator.log.gz

A quick check would suggests to only keep:
$ zcat linux_base-f10-distilator.log.gz  | grep ^200 | awk '{print $3}' \
| perl -e 'use URI; while(<>) { chomp(); $u=URI->new($_); print $u->host . "\n"; }' \
        | sort | uniq

archives.fedoraproject.org
ftp.quicknet.nl
ftp.rhd.ru
ftp.udl.es
mirror.steadfast.net

...but reducing MASTER_SITE_FEDORA_LINUX to those hosts shows that not even those
mirrors are consistent. Hence my prior suggestion to get a complete

:(

set of all distfiles
needed by ports using MASTER_SITE_FEDORA_LINUX and mirror those on reliable mirrors.

Should be easy to do (if a mirror is available).

I can assume that task if that's fine with emulation@ :-)

I am fine with this. I try to deprecate the linux*f[6789]* ports this week (I have to make up my mind if it will be one or two months of grace time). If you just spend the time to have a look at the fc4 and f10 ones, everything should arrive at a sane situation after the expiration date.

Bye,
Alexander.
