If specifying a custom port for PORTAGE_BINHOST, I get the following: Fetching binary packages info... Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 2899, in ? mydepgraph=depgraph(myaction,myopts) File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 866, in __init__ portage.db["/"]["bintree"].populate(("--getbinpkg" in myopts), ("--getbinpkgonly" in myopts)) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 5647, in populate self.remotepkgs = getbinpkg.dir_get_metadata(settings["PORTAGE_BINHOST"], chunk_size=chunk_size) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/getbinpkg.py", line 414, in dir_get_metadata conn,protocol,address,params,headers = create_conn(baseurl, conn) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/getbinpkg.py", line 123, in create_conn conn = ftplib.FTP(host) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/ftplib.py", line 107, in __init__ self.connect(host) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/ftplib.py", line 117, in connect for res in socket.getaddrinfo(self.host, self.port, 0, socket.SOCK_STREAM): socket.gaierror: (-2, 'Name or service not known')
emerge info, and the PORTAGE_BINHOST string please (need to know how you specified it).

Ok I've patched my getbinpkg.py to support port, but when checking the source, I realized that ftp://binpkg:binftp@213.89.77.37*:2121/pentium4/All/ would be the proper way to specify PASV mode, though it only strips out the * after hostname when using ftplib, not when it calls wget.. will check if there's possible to tell wget not to use the * or if it has to be solved in another way.
Created attachment 43277 [details, diff] Patch for getbinpkg.patch to support port in HTTP/HTTPS/FTP Self-explanatory patch
After going through the source more thoroughly, my suggestion is that a variable in /etc/make.conf should be read instead. Maybe a boolean FETCH_PASSIVE that affects both the standard FETCHCOMMAND and getbinpkg?
looks like this bug was discovered long time ago. I just encountered the same problem. Is is going to be fixed in portage? my PORTAGE_BINHOST looks like PORTAGE_BINHOST="anonymous:pass@192.168.1.4:2121/" portage gives me this same error message as above.
Zac: you know that code better, opinion on this one?

Bug 167902 has been filed wrt failures with servers that don't allow PASV. I wonder why passive mode shouldn't always be default since it works nicely when the client is using network address translation (unlike active mode).
(In reply to comment #8) time to push it in then ? :)
