Portage 2.1.6.4's make.conf.example documents an insufficient FETCHCOMMAND which breaks when SRC_URI arrows are used. From /usr/share/portage/config/make.conf.example: # Fetching files # ============== ... # Default fetch command (5 tries, passive ftp for firewall compatibility) #FETCHCOMMAND="/usr/bin/wget -t 5 -T 60 --passive-ftp \${URI} -P \${DISTDIR}" #RESUMECOMMAND="/usr/bin/wget -c -t 5 -T 60 --passive-ftp \${URI} -P \${DISTDIR}" Consider the following ebuild: $ cat iw-0.1.ebuild ... EAPI=2 ... SRC_URI="http://dl.aircrack-ng.org/${PN}.tar.bz2 -> ${P}.tar.bz2" This will lead to this behaviour (because the file is stored as iw.tar.bz2): >>> Downloading 'http://distfiles.gentoo.org/distfiles/iw-0.1.tar.bz2' --2009-01-05 05:16:56-- http://distfiles.gentoo.org/distfiles/iw-0.1.tar.bz2 Resolving distfiles.gentoo.org... 64.50.236.52, 64.50.238.52, 216.165.129.135, ...

Thanks, this is fixed in svn r12398.
This is fixed in 2.1.6.5 and 2.2_rc21.
