GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 121781
Abiword link still broken!!!!!

If you put extra useless dirs in the link it will cause problems. The link should be: MASTER_SITES = http://dl.sourceforge.net/abiword/
Both http://dl.sourceforge.net/abiword/ and http://dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/abiword/ work without problems for me. Can there be a difference in the setup of the sourceforge mirrors?
Yes, I think that not all of the sourceforge mirrors have a symlink to the actual dir. Therefore it tends to fail once in a while depending on which mirror you get directed too. So I think it would be better if we use the actual dir. instead of using a symlink to it which may not exist on all the mirrors.
There was quite a large update to the sourceforge based modules in the Stable GARNOME series. Can this bug be marked as FIXED now?
Around the time this bug was filed, MASTER_SITES = http://dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/abiword/ It's since been changed to, and is currently: GARVERSION = 2.2.5 MASTER_SITES = http://www.abisource.com/downloads/abiword/$(GARVERSION)/source/ Changing from NEEDINFO to FIXED.
