Problem

Build step 021-faad2-2.7 fails because the pinned download URL

https://downloads.sourceforge.net/faac/faad2-2.7.tar.gz

now returns HTTP 404 — SourceForge no longer serves faad2-2.7.tar.gz from that path, so download.sh aborts before faad2 can build.

Fix

Point the entry at the OSU OSL BLFS mirror, which serves the byte-identical tarball:

https://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/blfs/conglomeration/faad2/faad2-2.7.tar.gz

Size (1137407) and SHA256 (ee26ed1e177c0cd8fa8458a481b14a0b24ca0b51468c8b4c8b676fd3ceccd330) are unchanged, so download.sh's checksum verification still passes — only the host changes.

Verification

  • Downloaded from the new URL → SHA256 matches the pinned value.
  • Built faad2-2.7 with the ps3dev PPU cross-toolchain (powerpc64-ps3-elf-gcc 13.2.0) exactly as scripts/021-faad2-2.7.sh does: configure, make, and make install all succeed, producing libfaad.a as elf64-powerpc objects.

The SourceForge path https://downloads.sourceforge.net/faac/faad2-2.7.tar.gz
now returns HTTP 404, breaking build step 021-faad2-2.7. Point it at the
OSU OSL BLFS mirror, which serves the byte-identical tarball (same size and
SHA256, so download.sh verification still passes).
