>Description:
Unfortunately, the maintainers of lzip are extremely aggressive about archiving "old" versions.  7 weeks after updating to version 1.14, the tarball is no longer available because it's been moved to "old" subdir.
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
1) Update to version 1.15.  However, the problem will just repeat again.
2) separately or in addition to 1), add more MASTER_SITES manually which point to "old" folder so 1.14 (and later versions) can be retrieved after they are archived.
