https://gentoo.org/downloads/ Click either of the "Stage 3" download links. distfiles.gentoo.org returns an HTTP 404 error. Expected behavior: Stage exists and is accessible. Reproducible: Always
It seems most, if not all, of the other media download links on https://gentoo.org/downloads/ are also broken.
Works for me, maybe check which of the servers gave you that error (5 different IPs for the distfiles.g.o hostname).
This is NOT resolved. At least two of the mirrors are broken (64.50.236.52 and 140.211.166.134). 137.226.34.42 doesn't even return a response, the connection hangs. smkbot@mybox ~ $ host distfiles.gentoo.org distfiles.gentoo.org has address 64.50.236.52 distfiles.gentoo.org has address 216.165.129.135 distfiles.gentoo.org has address 140.211.166.134 distfiles.gentoo.org has address 137.226.34.42 distfiles.gentoo.org has address 156.56.247.195 smkbot@mybox ~ $ wget --spider http://distfiles.gentoo.org/releases/amd64/autobuilds/20150611/stage3-amd64-20150611.tar.bz2 Spider mode enabled.

If I override my hosts file to set distfiles.gentoo.org to 137.226.34.42, that mirror works fine (no timeouts). But 64.50.236.52 and 140.211.166.134 are still broken. Navigating to the root URI (eg. just http://distfiles.gentoo.org/) returns a listing with the distfiles in the root directory. There is no sub-directory releases/.
OSL have resolved their issues.
