In the ebuild for libaio-0.3.109-r4 the URI used is SRC_URI="mirror://kernel/linux/libs/aio/${P}.tar.bz2" But https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/aio/ is empty. It contains no files and as such when portage attempts to download/install this, it complains with >>> Downloading 'http://distfiles.gentoo.org/distfiles/libaio-0.3.109.tar.bz2' --2013-03-19 16:31:49-- http://distfiles.gentoo.org/distfiles/libaio-0.3.109.tar.bz2 Resolving distfiles.gentoo.org... 127.0.0.1 Connecting to distfiles.gentoo.org|127.0.0.1|:80... failed: Connection refused. >>> Downloading 'http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/aio/libaio-0.3.109.tar.bz2' --2013-03-19 16:31:49-- http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/aio/libaio-0.3.109.tar.bz2 Resolving www.kernel.org... 149.20.20.133, 198.145.20.140 Connecting to www.kernel.org|149.20.20.133|:80... connected.

I am having trouble locating if/where upstream keeps their tarballs now. As a workaround you can use the Gentoo mirrors.

*** Bug 493758 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
those release tarballs don't exist anymore. you need your GENTOO_MIRRORS set to a correct value in order for your system to function correctly. that said, there's finally a new release (0.3.110), and that has a valid upstream URI which will be used.
