Bug 26237 – emerge of sys-apps/smartmontools-5.1.16.ebuild fails

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Tim 2003-08-08 17:41:03 UTC]

When emerging smartmontools, portage downloads the package then immediatly 
tries to resume downloading the package (never gets the point of compiling and 
merging the package.  Occurs with at least sys-apps/smartmontools-5.1.16 and 
has also been reported on the forums 
(http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=73531). 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. # emerge smartmontools 
2. 
3. 
Actual Results:  
(emerge tries to download package, fails, refer to the URL for example output) 

Expected Results:  
 

nikai on the forums writes that: 
 
Portage appears to assume that *-16.tar.gz was an unfinished download, and 
tries to resume it. It works for me when I rename the file to *.16.tar.gz, and 
change the name in the ebuild. Weird.
