files/digest-ash-1.6 says: MD5 413f8642b19f3d1b85f9e1ba6cc957dc bin.tar.gz 850714 however, the size of bin.tar.gz on the mirrors is only 850,695 bytes, causing emerge to get caught in a download loop. Running gzip -t on the downloaded bin.tar.gz reports: /usr/portage/distfiles/bin.tar.gz: decompression OK, trailing garbage ignored
Just tried a couple of other mirrors, most of them either return: "No such file `bin.tar.gz'." or "Error in server response, closing control connection." !
fixed
..not completely: the new digest is only valid if downloading from ftp.netbsd.org, on most gentoo mirrors the file is still either missing or still 850695 bytes in size. "emerge ash" will cycle through gentoo mirrors until it finds the 850695 version, and cycle again until it gets to ftp.netbsd.org, downloads the remaining 27 bytes (which obviously belong to a different version) ==> md5 failed ==> BAM! Only way seems to be to download bin.tar.gz from ftp.netbsd.org manually. Is this going to synchronize automatically after some time, or should I open a new bug pointing this out?
mirror-admin: i've just sent avenj a mail to update(force update or delete) the file. i've put the new (smaller) in distfiles-local 10 hours ago, still no update on gentoo mirrors
