Please make sure you're running the latest version of portage, then run emerge xfree again, and post the emerge output. Thanks.

I downloaded XFree86-4.3.0-patches-1.1.3.tar.bz2 to /usr/portage/distfiles/
and ran emerge -u xfree again so its busy at the moment.

portage is current.

The error message was more or less:
unpacking XFree86-4.3.0-patches-1.1.3.tar.bz2

exitcode 2

failed to unpack XFree86-4.3.0-patches-1.1.3.tar.bz2


If I look in the ebuild for xfree 4.3.0 rc2 it specs patch level 1.1.3

but if I look in digest-xfree-4.3.0-r2 it lists XFree86-4.3.0-patches-1.1.2.tar.bz2

Do you think it might be the inconsistancy between the digest and the ebuild files?

please sync again, and emerge the -r3

make sure you have enough space to unpack everything.
