Missing kernel genpatches

I'm trying to emerge gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.1-rc1.ebuild, but I am getting 404's for genpatches-2.6.1-0.11.tar.bz2 for gentoo.oregonstate.edu, distro.ibiblio.org and dev.gentoo.org. Skipping this file isn't really and option for me, since it has an ALSA patch I need for my Aureal soundcard.

Any ideas of what's going on?

Solved, sort of.

The tar-balls still aren't up ont he rsync, mirrors, but I worked around it.

I downloaded all the patches into a genpatches-2.6.1-0.11 directory from dev.gentoo.org. Then I:

rm genpatches-2.6.1-0.11/226_ieee1394_updates_12282003.patch This patch fails, and I don't need it.
rm genpatches-2.6.1-0.11/227_alsa-1.0.0rc2.patch Unfotunately, I do need this one, but alas, it is broken. I'll try to patch it afterwards.
tar -cjf genpatches-2.6.1-0.11.tar.bz2 genpatches-2.6.1.0.11.tar.bz2
cp genpatches-2.6.1.011.tar.bz2 /usr/portage/distfiles
cd /usr/portage/sys-kernel/gentoo-dev-sources
rm files/digest-gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.1_rc1 Need to replace the digest like so:
ebuild gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.1_rc1.ebuild digest And lastly:
emerge gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.1_rc1.ebuild
