I edited my ebuild and replaced the original link to this: (This link is from the author's page.) SRC_URI=" http://wordnetcode.princeton.edu/${PV}/WordNet-${PV}.tar.gz The new tarball didn't match the size, so I create again the Manifest file with the force option Finally It compiled perfect Have a nice day!
It's related to this I think: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=543798
It should still fetch fine from gentoo mirrors, if you have a working GENTOO_MIRRORS setting. Though upstream's copy does seem to have changed since gentoo added it to their mirrors. I got curious and diff'd the 2 source copies: $ diff -ur * diff -ur WordNet-3.0.gentoo/doc/html/wnstats.7WN.html WordNet-3.0.upstream/doc/html/wnstats.7WN.html --- WordNet-3.0.gentoo/doc/html/wnstats.7WN.html 2006-12-15 15:05:55.000000000 -0600 +++ WordNet-3.0.upstream/doc/html/wnstats.7WN.html 2007-08-22 13:35:23.000000000 -0500 @@ -24,7 +24,7 @@ <TR> <TD ALIGN=LEFT>Adjective </TD> <TD ALIGN=RIGHT>21479 </TD> <TD ALIGN=RIGHT>18156 </TD> <TD ALIGN=RIGHT>30002 </TD> </TR> <TR> <TD ALIGN=LEFT>Adverb </TD> <TD ALIGN=RIGHT>4481 </TD> <TD ALIGN=RIGHT>3621 </TD> <TD ALIGN=RIGHT>5580 </TD> </TR> - <TR> <TR> <TD ALIGN=LEFT>Totals </TD> <TD ALIGN=RIGHT>155287 </TD> <TD ALIGN=RIGHT>120982 </TD> <TD ALIGN=RIGHT>206941 </TD> </TR> + <TR> <TR> <TD ALIGN=LEFT>Totals </TD> <TD ALIGN=RIGHT>155287 </TD> <TD ALIGN=RIGHT>117659 </TD> <TD ALIGN=RIGHT>206941 </TD> </TR> </TABLE> <P> diff -ur WordNet-3.0.gentoo/doc/man/wnstats.7 WordNet-3.0.upstream/doc/man/wnstats.7 --- WordNet-3.0.gentoo/doc/man/wnstats.7 2006-12-15 15:04:51.000000000 -0600 +++ WordNet-3.0.upstream/doc/man/wnstats.7 2007-08-22 13:33:20.000000000 -0500 @@ -18,7 +18,7 @@ Adjective/21479/18156/30002 Adverb/4481/3621/5580 = -Totals/155287/120982/206941 +Totals/155287/117659/206941 .TE .SS Polysemy information $

I just updated the SRC_URI from the homepage in a new revision. commit a31726101fbd16c0520916c2e075012f36f13b93 Author: Michael Orlitzky <mjo@gentoo.org> Date: Tue Jul 26 18:35:15 2016 -0400 app-dicts/wordnet: new revision fixing two bugs. This package is unmaintained and has two open bugs. The first has a patch, thanks to Edgar Gonzàlez i Pellicer, which fixes a problem introduced by an earlier patch. It is now applied. The second bug reports that the package's SRC_URI is no longer valid, so I have updated it from the homepage. The ebuild was updated to EAPI=6 in the process. This allowed the removal of multilib.eclass in exchange for a call to eapply_user. Gentoo-Bug: 314799 Gentoo-Bug: 543946 Package-Manager: portage-2.2.28
