Description gentoo-bugs 2004-01-22 11:33:47 UTC

I upgraded to portage 2.0.50_pre19 today. Since then package download seems to be a bit broken. When I try to emerge a packet, whose files are not yet download, it starts the download process per wget as usual. When wget finishes, it just hangs, doing nothing (not using CPU for example) until I abort via Ctrl-C. If I start the emerge again (with the file downloaded now), it works fine.
A reproducible package seems to be gpc-20030209.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. rm /usr/portage/distfiles/gpc-20030209.tar.gz
2. emerge gpc (now it will hang after download)
3. Abort via Ctrl-C
4. emerge gpc (now it works)

Actual Results:  
# rm /usr/portage/distfiles/gpc-20030209.tar.gz
# emerge gpc

did you try doing a `ps axu` or something and see WHAT was hanging ?

Comment 2 gentoo-bugs 2004-01-22 11:51:09 UTC

Damn, wo invented a lengthy 5 minute FTP timeout? A mirror seemed to have connection problems. After 2-3 minutes I was cconvinced that this couldn't be a connection problem, a "normal" application would have spit out a timeout, but no, it was set to 5 minutes ;) (Anyway perfect timing to get broken when I upgraded to _pre19 ;)
