I cannot reproduce this. Please disable all your overlays and try again. If that doesn't work, rm -rf /var/tmp/portage/* and try again.
Disabled all overlays, still fails to unpack. deleted all of /var/tmp/portage and it still fails to unpack.
Portage guys, your help? It appears that $A isn't getting set for the reporter, although I cannot reproduce the issue on the same portage version. Reporter, did the libXfont tarball get downloaded? That will at least tell us whether your $SRC_URI is being set correctly.
Ok, iam using NFS to remote mount my portage dir. When i use the local portage dir the package merges fine. They are both up to date. I have now removed the package from distfiles/ on both, iam now back to using the remote mounted portage but portage reports the package to have been downloaded when its not in eather dist files and it still fails to unpack.
It seems like somehow you got a bad cache entry for x11-libs/libXfont-1.2.0. If the cache entry was generated with portage-2.1.1_pre2-r5, there was a problem in that version that would cause the SRC_URI to be empty in the cache (that's why pre2-r6 was released soon after). Are you using any special cache modules in /etc/portage/modules ? Anyway, if you touch the ebuild, the cache should regenerate automatically.

You people that share the portage tree over nfs should either run `emerge --metadata` on the client or use the metadata_overlay module that's documented in `man portage`.
Thanks, after touching the ebuild and running `emerge --metadata` on the client its all working :)
(In reply to comment #10) > Thanks, after touching the ebuild and running `emerge --metadata` on the client > its all working :) You don't have to do both. Either one should do the trick.
