Fetching distfile from OSDN?
I just upgrade shells/yash, whose distfile is hosted on OSDN. I had to put the full URL into MASTER_SITES, because I can't figure out how to use the OSDN shortcut to fetch this: https://osdn.net/projects/yash/downloads/78345/yash-2.54.tar.xz Any ideas? Releases are linked from here: https://osdn.net/projects/yash/releases/ -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber na...@mips.inka.de

I try to avoid complaining, but it was marked deprecated on Feb 26 and removed on Mar 30: I agree that a software that was abandoned in 2003 or so should go away, but I believe this time window was too short, as those of us using quarterly ports didn't even see the deprecation notice. I don't think postponing the deprecation for two days would have had any big drawback... In any case, enough of that. Can anyone suggest something equivalent in the port tree? Have a look at fail2ban. It's design intent is monitoring running services, but really it's just a set of log file regex filters. Anything that logs network activity can feed it.
