Description Thomas 2004-10-29 00:56:17 UTC
lynx2.8.5.tar.bz2 which is currently on all gentoo mirrors is broken. Removing the file and downloading from other mirrors did not help.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
# emerge -u lynx 
Calculating dependencies ...done! 
>>> emerge (1 of 1) net-www/lynx-2.8.5 to / 
 
!!! Digest verification Failed: 
!!!    /usr/portage/distfiles/lynx2.8.5.tar.bz2 
!!! Reason: Failed on MD5 verification 
 
 
and additionally if I try to check the file itself: 
bzip2 -td /usr/portage/distfiles/lynx2.8.5.tar.bz2 
 
bzip2: Data integrity error when decompressing. 
        Input file = /usr/portage/distfiles/lynx2.8.5.tar.bz2, output file 
= /usr/portage/distfiles/lynx2.8.5.tar
Comment 1 Thomas 2004-10-29 23:55:24 UTC
to fix this manually, for example:

1. cd /usr/portage/distfiles
2. rm lynx2.8.5.tar.bz2
3. wget http://www.mirror.ac.uk/mirror/lynx.isc.org/lynx2.8.5/lynx2.8.5.tar.bz2 -O lynx2.8.5.tar.bz2
4. emerge -u lynx # <- works!
Comment 2 Thomas 2004-12-01 13:51:16 UTC
seems to be fixed now...
