*** Bug 137273 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
either your mirror or your connection is broken delete the file and try again
Done that, still fails. Doesn't a broken mirror count as a bug? If the bug doesn't get reported here, where do I report a broken mirror? I'm downloading from ftp://212.219.56.152/sites.www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/distfiles
that looks like an unofficial mirror to me ... nothing we can do about those
