#Gentoo Infra: unable to get even the most trivial hosting for developer-made distfiles, first requested in 2007.
https://bugs.gentoo.org/176186
Also Gentoo Infra: putting a lot of effort to find, archive and mirror historical upstream distfiles.
https://bugs.gentoo.org/834712
I mean, Gentoo developers are using hacky solutions right now, and are irrevocably discarding old, custom-made distfiles, because of limited space on the disk used to host them. Wouldn't it make more sense to stop this from happening first?
