Created attachment 306381 [details] dev-util/intltool-0.50.2 build.log showing fetch failure If wget is compiled without ssl, it is possible to have distfiles fetch failures such as the following: HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 303 See Other Location: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/94524169/intltool-0.50.2.tar.gz [following] https://launchpadlibrarian.net/94524169/intltool-0.50.2.tar.gz: HTTPS support not compiled in. !!! Couldn't download 'intltool-0.50.2.tar.gz'. Aborting. I encountered this when portage tried to fetch distfiles for dev-util/intltool during an attempt to test firefox compilation on ppc64-linux. I assume that this affects all platforms.

(In reply to comment #1) > > HTTPS support not compiled in. > > Fix you USE flags, the error message is obvious....... RESO:INVALID For the record, this wasn't a USE flag issue. My prefix install had been using a ppc64-linux profile that predated the profile in the prefix tree. I had forgotten to switch profiles when bug 407499 was resolved. This issue was an artifact of that.
