Description m.martucci 2003-01-10 09:38:30 UTC

Here's what happens:
1. portage attempts download from a gentoo mirror.
2. gentoo mirror returns a 404 not found (for http)
3. portage attempts download with alternate site
4. portage dlds from alternate site.
5. dld gets interrupted for whatever reason (eg, modem disconnect/ctrl-C).
6. emerge manually restarted
7. portage requests partial content from gentoo mirror (the one that 404'd)
8. gentoo mirror returns 416 requested range not satisfiable
9. portage thinks file must already be downloaded, so proceeds with md5sum checks.
10. md5sum fails because file only partially dlded, and portage user must
manually delete file & hope to get it all in one chunk OR disable the gentoo
mirrors in env vars or make.conf.
