Hello all!

I just was trying to emerge kde 3.1.3 and every time it wants to download a
package from the Georgia Tech's mirror emerge stops due to bad md5. After
some investigating I found out that many (or all) bz2 files in
ftp://ftp.gtlib.cc.gatech.edu/pub/kde/stable/3.1.3/src/ are corrupt. In fact, they only
contain about 60 KB on data (kdeutils has 0x6FFF bytes of data, kdeadmin 0xBFFF,
etc.) while the rest is filled with zeros. I tried at least three other
mirrors, they were ok.

In order to emerge kde without interruption I deleted all appearances of the
gatech mirror from /usr/portage/profiles/thirdpartymirrors (there were two I
think). I don't know how many actually experienced this, I only found one
short thread in the forums and no mails in the archives or my inbox. So in
order to be sure of the issue I'd like to ask you to verify this if you have some
spare bandwidth and time. Here is the kde ftp mirror page:

ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/3.1.3/src/


Cheers,
Renat
