5 years ago Apologies, I'm working my way through the entire library page over the next hour, and I'm going to edit this issue a few more times to add things that I find. Should have waited to submit until I was done.

5 years ago All fine. Thank you for moving through it.

5 years ago Okay, finished. Thank you for looking at this. If there are ways you would like me to pull request changes more directly, please point me to the associated resources.

5 years ago I'm late getting back to this... the issue with the libraries is the links are defined by the library owners, in a data file that they host. So, these links can only be fixed by the library owners. We can remove the library from the list, but we can't directly correct the links. Typically, @prisonerjohn will email people to request the change. I'll write to @prisonerjohn now to ask.

5 years ago Hello, @jeremydouglass thanks for this audit and @REAS thanks for the ping. I should check GitHub more often than I do... I'll look through these over the next few days and see what's up. As Casey says, it's usually up to the library owners, all we can do is send them a note if something goes wrong.

5 years ago @prisonerjohn -- strangely, I also discovered a problem with the Processing.R mode -- and I'm the maintainer of that mode! A local install was preventing me from seeing that it wasn't available through contributions manager due to a moved txt file. I'll make a pull request now to fix that one.
Done: https://github.com/processing/processing-docs/pull/769

5 years ago In the course of working on an archiver for all publicly available Processing materials, I developed something that walks sources.conf and logs of everything that fails. This is different from broken links on the library website page, but generally the same root cause -- moved / missing contributions -- so I'm leaving it part of the same issue.
Here is the latest run as of ~last week, grouped by error type. Some may have been temporarily down.
Notably, one of them (opencv) has a valid .txt, but the .zip has bad permissions.
Also, there are a bunch of old things that were published via Dropbox. I believe that Dropbox changed their API long since and that those things aren't going to work again -- they would need new URLs (probably on a different service).

4 years ago The ezgestures listing in sources.conf is now broken due to domain forwarding into a 404:
http://www.silentlycrashing.net/ezgestures/files/ezgestures.txt
Looks like the site is forwarding to "http://prisonerjohn.com/", whoever that is @prisonerjohn ;)
