When I try to emerge openclipart with USE="gzip png svg" it downloads a 324 MB huge File from 'http://de-mirror.org/distro/gentoo/distfiles/openclipart-0.19.tar.bz2' and http://download.openclipart.org/downloads/0.19/openclipart-0.19.tar.bz2. It tries the mirror then the original site, so In fact it downloads more than 600 MB of Data to find out: ('Filesize does not match recorded size', 340235637, 2585150) !!! Fetched file: openclipart-0.19.tar.bz2 VERIFY FAILED! !!! Reason: Filesize does not match recorded size !!! Got: 340235637 !!! Expected: 2585150 Refetching... File renamed to '/usr/portage/distfiles/openclipart-0.19.tar.bz2._checksum_failure_.j4tzUC' Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge openclipart 2. see your bandwith beeing wasted multiple times 3. watch a failing ebuild Actual Results: huge chunks of temporary files Expected Results: installed opencliparts
Thanks. Fixed. It was broken by ssuominen while moving from x11-misc to media-gfx. @dev-portage: Please have a look if this can be improved.
What do you portage want to do? To not try to download from the upstream servers if the file on the mirror is bad?
I don't expect anything, but guess I should have doublechecked my doublecheck it emerged fine. eof
