i try to emerge gimp-print-cups. What i do and what i get is: root@xxxxxx distfiles # emerge gimp-print-cups Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 2) net-print/foomatic-2.0.2 to / >>> Downloading http://ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pub/linux/gentoo//distfiles/foomatic-2.0.2.tar.gz --14:50:18-- http://ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pub/linux/gentoo/distfiles/foomatic-2.0.2.tar.gz => `/usr/portage/distfiles/foomatic-2.0.2.tar.gz' Resolving ftp.tu-clausthal.de... done.

Deleting the distfile and refetching doesn't fix the problem. Using another downloadmirror or ibiblio itself doesn't fix it too.
what happens if you rm -f /usr/portage/net-print/foomatic/files/digest* and emerge sync and try again?
deleting the digestfile didn't change the situation. :-( excuse me if its rather a FAQ then a bug.
Looks like the file it downloaded isn't the right file...size 902 text/html..definatly not a tarball. Just chekced that address and I get a file not found.
are you using mirrorselect ? please try to download the file from the original location (emerge -pf foomatic will show u)
OK, next try: i got it from http://www.linuxprinting.org/download/foomatic/foomatic-2.0.2.tar.gz and now the md5sum seems to be ok, but the tarball seems to be broken. :-( >>> emerge (2 of 3) net-print/foomatic-2.0.2 to / >>> md5 ;-) foomatic-2.0.2.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking foomatic-2.0.2.tar.gz gzip: stdin: not in gzip format tar: Child returned status 1 tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors !!! ERROR: net-print/foomatic-2.0.2 failed. !!! Function unpack, Line 278, Exitcode 2 !!! failure unpacking foomatic-2.0.2.tar.gz So at least its not only a problem with the portage-system but with foomatic itself. I for now managed to install foomatic-2.0.0 and got it run this way.
sorry for the last message, the tarball is ok, a still had the wrong file in /usr/portage/distfiles. At least foomatics is installed now in the newest version.
so it's a mirror problem right? seemant? (i cc'd u cuz i don't know who's our mirror guy .. cybersystem?)
There shouldn't be any foomatic-2.0.2.tar.gz on mirrors (yet) but since that mirror appears to use a HTML page for 404 errors, wget doesn't realize it's a 404. Misconfigured web server - anyone have information on who runs that mirror? (I put the file on Ibiblio this morning, it should propogate to other mirrors soon.)
checking now and the problem seems to be fixed. closing bug.
