Hi, I am having some serious trouble. I can't sync my portage tree. >>> starting rsync with rsync://217.72.114.101/gentoo-portage... >>> checking server timestamp ...

It works again. No idea why. Johnny
That's strange I'm getting the exact same error -- rsync: link_stat "/metadata/timestamp.chk" (in gentoo-portage) failed: No such file or directory (2) I've tried changeing my GENTOO_MIRRORS and SYNC servers but that doesn't help -- any ideas?

Darn.. I should have looked up on google more thoroughly. Because the simple solution is: emerge --metadata && emerge --sync My apologieses... Ignore my previous post.
This is happening to me. It happened when I tried to sync initially and when I: 1) Deleted my whole /usr/portage 2) Downloaded http://gentoo.osuosl.org/snapshots/portage-20090406.tar.bz2 3) Unpacked above like normal 4) Tried to "emerge --sync" again
Incase anyone else runs into this issue: just delete your /usr/portage/metadata/timestamp.chk file
(In reply to comment #7) > Incase anyone else runs into this issue: just delete your > /usr/portage/metadata/timestamp.chk file > It's not helping. What helped me was: rm /usr/portage/metadata/timestamp.chk touch /usr/portage/metadata/timestamp.chk emerge --sync
(In reply to comment #8) > What helped me was: > rm /usr/portage/metadata/timestamp.chk > touch /usr/portage/metadata/timestamp.chk > emerge --sync > I had this same issue as well. That worked for me.
