xf86Wacom package is a c source file from http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~flepied/projects/wacom, that normally should be compressed in gzip format, is not compressed, so portage and ebuild fail when they try to verify the md5sum and uncompress it. 2 Solution: contact with F. Lepied to correct the problem or fix ebuild and digest files. While the author makes the necesary changes I have make a patch to 'mv' intead of 'gunzip' the file (chages in md5sum from digest is necesary).

Created attachment 17148 [details, diff] example for patching the 4.3.99 xfree ebuild Example for patching the 4.3.99 xfree ebuild to avoid temporally the xf86Wacom c source problem.This is not a final solution!!!, the correct solution is to make a gzip file from xf86Wacom from its web site.

http://peoples.mandrakesoft.com/~flepied/projects/wacom/xf86Wacom.c.gz http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu/distfiles/xf86Wacom.c.gz Both are gzipped files.
Yes, both are gzipped files, but I have checked downloading from different places and in some of them the file is ungezipped on the fly: Why?? It is possible that the transparent proxies implemented over the Telefonica Network (Main Spain op.) are altering some file contents (v.g. *.zip, *.gz, etc)? The results are that the user can not install/upgrade xfree package.
