The emerge -S feature is broken on my system. It began on 24 May, actual time unknown, however I am fairly certain this is not related to the gentoo.oregonstate.edu issue. 1. I do not pull from oregonstate.edu. 2. I have not received a single MD5/digest error message. 3. I have rm -rf * in my /usr/portage directory twice and emerge sync twice. The second time was from the Coldnet server. Each time I have recompiled python and portage to no avail. For any search term given to emerge -S the error messages look similar to this: smith3 portage # emerge -S burn Searching...

The only thing that I have changed on my system in the last three days is setting the CHOST in my /etc/make.conf to -march=pentium3 -mcpu=pentium4, due to the sse bug. After changing the CHOST I recompiled python and portage. Unfortunatly I am not certain when the problem started but it was after this change that I noticed it. I was not doing any --searchdesc on my system for a couple days now. So far I have reset the CHOST back to -march=pentium4, rebuilt python and portage with the same results. I now set the CHOST back to the -march=pentium3 -mcpu=pentium4 and am building glibc, gcc, python and portage. I will post the results asap.

This should be fixed in the upcoming 48-r1
