Description Henk Spaaij 2010-02-26 16:27:00 UTC
Trying to install wine-1.1.35 failed with an error that package size does not match recorded size.

Investigation shows that the downloaded file contained a html page saying "This URLs or Page has been blocked."

Opening the URL in a browser gives the same result.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge wine
Alternatively:
1. wget http://distfiles.gentoo.org/distfiles/wine_gecko-1.0.0-x86.cab 

This might depend on your location. This is from Vancouver, Canada.
Actual Results:  
The downloaded cab file contains:
<html>
<head>
  <title></title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="ffffff">
  <h2><h2>
  <p>
  This URLs or Page has been blocked.
</body>
</html>


Expected Results:  
The actual cab file

Downloading over https works.

That is a message inserted by a proxy between you and the internet. Please stab your admin or ISP with a rusty spoon until they stop doing silly things.

Nothing we can do about it, sorry.

i've solved the problem by adding this line: app-emulation/wine* ~amd64 to my portage.keywords.
