While syncing and upgrading my local portage tree, a downgrade to the smarteiffel package from version 1.0 to version 1.0_beta5 was requested. The file smarteiffel-1.0_beta5.tar.bz2 however does not come with a digest - and hence portage complains when i try to install this package. I can get around this by creating my own digest for the file - but it *should* be there automatically!! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge sync 2. emerge smarteiffel Actual Results: [root@david /etc] #emerge smarteiffel Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) dev-lang/smarteiffel-1.0_beta5 to / !!! No message digest entry found for file "smarteiffel-1.0_beta5.tar.bz2." !!! Most likely a temporary problem. Try 'emerge rsync' again later. !!! If you are certain of the authenticity of the file then you may type !!! the following to generate a new digest: !!! ebuild /usr/portage/category/package/package-version.ebuild digest [root@david /etc] # Expected Results: it should have merged!!!!
