Could this problem be related to some other > cause? Look at the tail end of /var/log/emerge.log and see what you have recently emerged. The most painless way to do this is something like: % genlop -l | tail -n 200 | less Mine shows that I emerged 'sys-apps/portage-2.1.3.16' Saturday morning. My guess is that you did the same, and your 'make.conf' was modified. (Did you 'update-etc' or 'dispatch-conf' after emerging?) Check that make.conf contains a section like this: # Synchronizing Portage # ===================== # # Each of these settings affects how Gentoo synchronizes your Portage tree. # Synchronization is handled by rsync and these settings allow some control # over how it is done. # # # SYNC is the server used by rsync to retrieve a localized rsync mirror # rotation. This allows you to select servers that are geographically # close to you, yet still distribute the load over a number of servers. # Please do not single out specific rsync mirrors. Doing so places undue # stress on particular mirrors. Instead you may use one of the following # continent specific rotations: # # Default: "rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" # North America: "rsync://rsync.namerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" # South America: "rsync://rsync.samerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" # Europe: "rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" # Asia: "rsync://rsync.asia.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" # Australia: "rsync://rsync.au.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.namerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" # # PORTAGE_RSYNC_RETRIES sets the number of times portage will attempt to retrieve # a current portage tree before it exits with an error. This allows # for a more successful retrieval without user intervention most times. #PORTAGE_RSYNC_RETRIES="3" # # PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS can be used to feed additional options to the rsync # command used by `emerge --sync`. This will not change the default options # which are set by PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS (don't change those unless you know # exactly what you're doing). #PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS="" # The 'SYNC' variable is the important one: > I wish I was more expert in this area. > regards > Paul > BobS -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
