During upgrade to the latest xorg-x11 7.0-r1, I need to upgrade media-fonts/encodings-1.0.0. However, it fails with

Try

Code:
ls -alh /usr/portage/distfiles/encodings-1.0.0.tar.bz2


(i.e. is the file you think you downloaded actually there?). If that file doesn't exist, then download it manually to /usr/portage/distfiles and then emerge the package (it should check distfiles before it runs off and tries to download it).

Yes, it's there. The weird part is the second time emerge says
Code:
    The file is already fully retrieved; nothing to do.

It knows the file is there, but says failed :( I tried by deleting the file again and again, but the result is the same; it downloads the file and aborts. Is the file corrupt? If so, how can I download the correct file? but I confirmed md5sum was correct.

EDIT: I suspected portage files were corrupt under /usr/portage/media-fonts/encodings and downloaded them again, but it still fails....

I'm also encountering exactly the same error when trying to emerge xorg-x11.

I have two Gentoo boxes, and one encountes this problem, and the other had no problem. So I made a binary package on the successful box and transferred to the other box and installed the package as binary. This package uses only "debug" USE flag, so it's portable in the binary form.

I had this problem yesterday, but it seems to be fine now, so try syncing and see if it works.

I've got encodings-1.0.0 emerged on this machine, so I doubt there's a bug in the .ebuild file. This is pretty weird though...
