Description Tyler Spivey 2002-07-23 16:47:03 UTC
as far as i can tell, the file seems to be a binary file.
all the other digest files are text, so i believe this is an ebuild problem.
this could also be user error, but am not sure.

bad rsync mirror?
Comment 2 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2002-07-23 22:18:36 UTC
i had this problem too ... but since there is a newer version of dialog out 
(dialog-0.9_beta20020519) i didnt bother doing anything about it

Nathan, for now, just generate the digest yourself 
 
cd /usr/portage/dev-util/dialog 
ebuild dialog-0.9_beta20020519.ebuild digest 
 
This doesn't seem to get me anywhere, however. It just spits out the error 
 
!!! The digest 
/usr/portage/dev-util/dialog/files/digest-dialog-0.9_beta20020519 appears to 
be corrupt. Aborting. 
Comment 5 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2002-07-29 00:01:23 UTC
delete the digest before you compute a new one
`rm /usr/portage/dev-util/dialog/files/digest-dialog-0.9_beta20020519`
`ebuild /usr/portage/dev-util/dialog/dialog-0.9_beta20020519.ebuild digest`

this is an old version of dialog and no longer exists in portage ... closing bug
