On a machine about 10 months old that has had very few updates I ran emerge sync tonight and got this error: deleting app-accessibility/dasher/files/digest-dasher-3.2.16 deleting app-accessibility/dasher/dasher-3.2.16.ebuild Number of files: 140163 Number of files transferred: 68236 Total file size: 124245162 bytes Total transferred file size: 88267153 bytes Literal data: 88267153 bytes Matched data: 0 bytes File list size: 3176711 Total bytes written: 1364901 Total bytes read: 94515761 wrote 1364901 bytes read 94515761 bytes 351855.64 bytes/sec total size is 124245162 speedup is 1.30 >>> Updating Portage cache: 88%!!!
