When emerging sys-kernel/mips-sources-2.6.29.1, the unpack fails, unable to find linux-2.6.29.1.tar.bz2. It is correct in not being able to find this file, as the file listed in the Manifest and the downloaded file are called linux-2.6.29.tar.bz2. The file patch-2.6.29.1.bz2 is also downloaded, which would be applied to make the kernel source for 2.6.29.1. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. I am starting with a new install, as no system on this platform is otherwise available to me. 2. emerge mips-sources Actual Results: After the files are downloaded, the unpack starts and fails immediately after the messages from the package: >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking linux-2.6.29.1.tar.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/sys-kernel/mips-sources-2.6.29.1/work !!!

@andy, I presume this is no longer an issue w/ 2.6.29.1-r1 (testing locally and checking the codepaths, things look fine)...
From what I can see it is working now. I am running into other (unrelated) issues, so can't verify that the full build works, but the failure is after this point now. Looks fixed to me.
