Was attempting to install the aegypten extensions to kmail according to the instructions on this page: http://www.niii.kun.nl/~pauldv/kmailgentoo.php At 11:34pm PST on 2003-05-23, I did: > emerge sync > ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge newpg cryptplug pinentry ...several prerequisites installed fine, then is see this... >>> emerge (4 of 7) app-crypt/newpg-0.9.4 to / >>> Downloading http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu/distfiles/newpg-0.9.4.tar.gz --23:26:44-- http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu/distfiles/newpg-0.9.4.tar.gz => `/usr/portage/distfiles/newpg-0.9.4.tar.gz' Resolving gentoo.oregonstate.edu... done.

I have even run 'fixpackages' on the effected system, then resynced. The problem now seems endemic: trying to install any package results in this error.
This appears to be a problem with the oregon state mirror. Changing to Georgia Tech in the make.conf file fixes the problem: GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.gtlib.cc.gatech.edu/pub/gentoo"
