Upstream seem to delete old versions when a new one comes out. Please ensure you have a valid GENTOO_MIRRORS set.
Set for valid http in PL, checked on global rsync, synced write before emerge, gentoo paceges shows the same ebuild source as one on my machine.

OK, so in repos.conf: sync-uri = rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage in make.conf: GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp.vectranet.pl/gentoo/" is my standard, i`ve checkd with different before reporting...
they do not delete old releases on github. Should we switch to github? https://github.com/cjlin1/liblinear/tags

That's how version liblinear-243.ebuild is done from the beggining (https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/dev-libs/liblinear?id=03027911410624d6e59ef558a6747eef81464996), it is based on github. From a quick glance at bugzilla issue history for version 263, there seems to be none, so the unreliability might just be purely hypothetical. Just as the OP, I use the PL mirror.
