Sorry, unable to cut 'n' paste from here. Trying to do an update world, and it's exiting out on qt-3.0.4.20020606: /usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: /usr/portage/distfiles/qt-copy-3.0.4-cvs.patch: No such file or directory
It is indeed downloading and claims to unpack both qt-copy-3.0.4.tar.bz2 and qt-copy-3.0.4.20020606-cvs.patch.tar.bz2. It patches both qinputcontext_x11.cpp and qapplication_x11.cpp before returning the 'no such file' error.
I ran an 'emerge rsync' then attempted to emerge --update world again. Presto, it works!
