Hello, Am getting this problem rebuilding world (after gcc 4.1.1 upgrade): bilby ~ # emerge bin86 Calculating dependencies... done! >>> Emerging (1 of 1) sys-devel/bin86-0.16.17 to / >>> checking ebuild checksums ;-) >>> checking auxfile checksums ;-) >>> checking miscfile checksums !!! Digest verification failed: !!! /usr/portage/sys-devel/bin86/metadata.xml !!! Reason: Filesize does not match recorded size !!! Got: 420 !!! Expected: 237 I tried twice (over a period of 24 hours) removing /usr/portage/sys-devel/bin86 (and dev86) and resyncing, but that did not help. Same problem with dev86 (not sure if it's worth filing a separate bug for that, but happy to do it if needed): bilby ~ # emerge dev86 Calculating dependencies... done! >>> Emerging (1 of 1) sys-devel/dev86-0.16.17-r3 to / >>> checking ebuild checksums ;-) >>> checking auxfile checksums ;-) >>> checking miscfile checksums !!!

They are both installing fine for me now. Many thanks. By the way, am I (the reporter) supposed to close this bug? I can't seem to find a clear answer in the bug reporting guide.
This bug has been resolved.
