Thanks for your sugesstion. I moved this thread to crux-devel
for further discussion.
The last update of util-linux was in march 06, so it's only
1.5 years.
Anyway, I'd second the move to util-linux-ng. Please test the
attached port. If there are no objections we should do the
change with the 2.4-rc1 next week.

Greetings, all.
Attached is a patch for pkgutils 5.30.0 that adds distfile repository
support via a pkgmk.conf variable, PKGMK_DISTFILE_REPOS.
By default it's defined empty which causes no behavioral changes. If you
define it to a list of URLs, like
PKGMK_DISTFILE_REPOS=(http://gentoo.osuosl.org/distfiles/http://fileserver.intranet/crux/distfiles/) it'll attempt to fetch the
source archive from the listed hosts before falling back to the host
defined in the source=() array in the Pkgfile.
Yes, this has been brought up before and by other people besides me. The
reason I bring it up again now is that I'd like to see it in 2.4. The
opinions in the IRC meeting were favorable but I'm posting it here for
more exposure. Please give it a look and feel free to comment.
