Well, XMMS is a multimediapackage. But I am trying to install, rather upgrading it, and doing so from the commandline, so here goes:

Code:
!!! Couldn't download xmms-1.2.10-gentoo-patches-2.2.2.tar.bz2. Aborting


This is the errormessage I get after five different servers have been queried and returned "no such file" or 404.

It wasn't ten minutes before the "emerge -uD world" I did a "emerge sync".

I tried to search the forums, but to no avail. Am I alone on this?

i use this setting in /etc/make.conf and it works flawlessly

Code:
GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/mirrors/gentoo            ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo/               ftp://ftp.gentoo.skynet.be/pub/gentoo/             ftp://ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pub/linux/gentoo/             ftp://ftp.snt.utwente.nl/pub/os/linux/gentoo               ftp://ftp.tiscali.nl/pub/mirror/gentoo                  ftp://ftp.solnet.ch/mirror/Gentoo               ftp://ftp.ecc.u-tokyo.ac.jp/GENTOO"

Thanks a lot. I added Your servers to my make.conf

This time it worked on my third server though, so I guess it is a matter of waiting for the servers around to be updated.

The extra adresses will not do any harm, so I will let them stay.
