Hi, I've recently manually downloaded a tar.gz archive for oracle-jdk-bin package and placed it into the distfiles directory but it had wrong permissions and portage couldn't read it. But from the error message portage printed it's unclear what the problem is: >>> Unpacking jdk-7u65-linux-x64.tar.gz to /mnt/portage-tmp/portage/dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin-1.7.0.65/work gzip: abort: read error on /mnt/portage-tmp/portage/dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin-1.7.0.65/distdir/jdk-7u65-linux-x64.tar.gz tar: This does not look like a tar archive tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors Could you please add a file-readability check before trying to unpack the archive and handle this exception better? Thanks!
