Hi Brian,

Try a search on Google for the archive filename and another for the md5sum itself to see whether anyone else is mirroring it too.

Here Google reveals that Debian is mirroring whois, http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/w/whois/whois_4.6.0.tar.gz so it could be added as an alternate CustomMirror:

Source: mirror:custom:%n_%v.tar.gz

It would be nice to be able to just add "mirror:debian:pool/main/w/%n/%n_%v.tar.gz", but fink doesn't support mirror designations within CustomMirror yet. See:

My 'whois' package keeps breaking because the guy who develops it apparently
deletes the old versions as soon as he releases a new one. Anyone have a
suggestion as to a way to work around this? Is it acceptable to setup a
private mirror of the next-to-most-recent version of the source then use a
CustomMirror?

Just want to check in before I build the new .info

Thanks,
Brian
