Expected Results:  
successful install

I performed:
hermes ~ # locate urw-fonts-2.4-9.fc13.src.rpm
/usr/portage/distfiles/urw-fonts-2.4-9.fc13.src.rpm
hermes ~ # rm /usr/portage/distfiles/urw-fonts-2.4-9.fc13.src.rpm
hermes ~ # locate urw-fonts-2.4-9.fc13.src.rpm

in order to force a new download just in case the download was corrupted.
then I performed:
 emerge media-fonts/urw-fonts
which started a download, but the unpack/unzip was unsuccessful, again.

Supporting files to follow.

Here's my work-around:
I unmasked  app-arch/rpm2targz so I would pull in version ~9.0.0.4g; I emerged app-arch/rpm2targz so now I have:
 
[I] app-arch/rpm2targz
     Available versions:  9.0.0.3g (~)9.0.0.4g {userland_GNU}

     Description:         Convert a .rpm file to a .tar.gz archive

I then attempted with success:

emerge media-fonts/urw-fonts

Seems that perhaps app-arch-rpm2targz version 9.0.0.4g should be a prerequisite to media-fonts/urw-fonts-2.4.9.

Leaving this Bug as NEW so it might catch the attention of the maintainer for the package media-fonts/urw-fonts-2.4.9; otherwise the classification of this bug should be Works for Me.

This is just a problem with rpm2cpio and would have been solved by a revdep-rebuild run (which would have reemerged the broken rpm2cpio package).

Can you please reemerge your old version of rpm2cpio and try againg? Thanks

We can resolve this more elegantly.
