Spack: bzip2 upstream is "gone" ?

Created on 7 Sep 2019  路  3Comments  路  Source: spack/spack

This was working yesterday, but today the source for bzip2 is returning 410 Gone:

==> Installing bzip2
==> Searching for binary cache of bzip2
==> Warning: No Spack mirrors are currently configured
==> No binary for bzip2 found: installing from source
==> Fetching https://fossies.org/linux/misc/bzip2-1.0.6.tar.gz

        967        self._fetch_time = time.time() - start_time
        968

Has anyone seen this before (or know a workaround?)

Actually looks like it's known, I'm editing the package file now:

    # FIXME: The bzip.org domain has expired:
    # https://lwn.net/Articles/762264/
    # This package will need to be updated when a new home is found.
    homepage = "https://sourceware.org/bzip2/"

okay I have a fix, I'll put it in with my current PR.

Just kidding I'm an idiot, I didn't have an updated version of develop.
