When using makepkg to make a bzip2 package it will try to download from sources.redhat.com which is no longer accessible for most people (at least not for me ;) ).

To build bzip2 i've used http://www.partimage.org/deps/bzip2-$pkgver.tar.gz as the source in the PKGBUILD
This task depends upon

I don't understand. The file is on sources.redhat.com, I can download it. Can you connect to ftp://sources.redhat.com at all, or is the file just missing?

sources.redhat.com is very picky about who can connect and who can't. Using my buildbox at school I can't connect, but last time I checked in norway it worked. It's just a shootout FTP server that is very selective about what users are able to connect ;)

I can't connect to sources.redhat.com via ftp at all. I wonder why it is picky about who can connect and who can't.

Weird. Okay, I've changed the download URL.
