Unfortunately Blackmagic Design company has changed their download 
mechanism to use only a web page that requires name & email details of 
the downloader; then issues some sort of download authority so that wget 
could be used. However that authority it is time limited, so not worth 
adding that to the .info file.

It has been that way for a while for newer versions and I held the 
version back at 10.1.4 purely because it was still directly 
downloadable. Looks like they've eventually realised and closed that 
loophole.


This is, more or less, the same situation as the SlackBuild for jdk; the 
DOWNLOAD file must be downloaded separately first.

An alternative would be to host the download file somewhere else like 
slackbuildsdirectlinks but there may be legal implications to consider. 
Any insights welcome ...
