Created attachment 927688 [details] build log for powermgmt-base I am attempting to install apmd on ppc64. It brings in powermgmt-base, but that fails to emerge due to 404 Not Found errors. It makes many attempts at pulling in this package but it's simply not found. `eix` only reports one version available. Debian mirrors that I navigated to (ex: http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/powermgmt-base/) show versions 1.34 and up. I `emerge --sync`'d just now to ensure that no updates existed at the time of this bug report. Perhaps the ebuild needs a version bump?
That file is on our mirrors, though, which Portage should look at first. Do you have a broken GENTOO_MIRRORS set? (The default should be okay.)
My GENTOO_MIRRORS is set to ""
(In reply to Dann from comment #2) > My GENTOO_MIRRORS is set to "" Don't do that.
I did miss that step. I'm trying to automate the installation and it got overlooked. I also assumed that leaving it empty would default to an official mirror, as my repos.conf/gentoo.conf file was set to sync-uri = rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage. I tried to install mirrorselect and it gave me an error which was very unusual and mentioned not being able to download a file. I then searched online for some mirrors, set it to this: GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://mirror.rackspace.com/gentoo/ rsync://rsync31.us.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage/ rsync://rsync26.us.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage/ rsync://rsync.us.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage/" Sync'd and then both mirrorselect and powermgmt-base started emerging without issue. Apologies for wasting a bug report, this is a pebkac issue. Thank you for helping me through it and helping me understand the Gentoo system better.

No worries, blank is blank, and the default is http://distfiles.gentoo.org/. Thanks for following up!
