Hi.

I've got the following error while installing adesklets 0.4.9:
Code:
>>> md5 files   ;-) adesklets-0.4.9.ebuild
>>> md5 files   ;-) ChangeLog
>>> md5 files   ;-) metadata.xml
>>> md5 files   ;-) files/digest-adesklets-0.4.9

!!! Digest verification Failed:
!!!    /usr/portage/distfiles/adesklets-0.4.9.tar.bz2
!!! Reason: Failed on MD5 verification


Is there a fix?

The usual fix for digest verification failures is to:
  1. delete the downloaded file (in this case, /usr/portage/distfiles/adesklets-0.4.9.tar.bz2)
  2. change the place you're downloading from (by editing /etc/make.conf, or, for a one-time fix, putting something like this in front of your emerge command: GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://planetmirror.com/pub/gentoo/")
  3. re-emerging

A digest failure means the downloaded file does not look like it should -- it's corrupted or different in some way from the original. So you need to get a clean copy from somewhere else.

Thanks parsim. I'll try that.

EDIT: Worked. Thanks again :) .
