[gentoo-user] Trying to install binary package -> Endless loop of cache miss?

[Alexander Skwar]

Hello.

I'm trying to install one package from a binary package http host.
To do so, I added to my make.conf:

PORTAGE_BINHOST="http://public-files.askwar.gentoo-packages.s3.amazonaws.com/GentooUSB/packages/All/"                                                                              

Now I'm running:

winnb000488 / # emerge --verbose --debug --getbinpkgonly -pt zip
myaction None
myopts {'--tree': True, '--usepkgonly': True, '--pretend': True, '--getbinpkg': True, '--buildpkg': True, '--alphabetical': True, '--verbose': True, '--debug': True, '--getbinpkgonly': True, '--usepkg': True}

These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

Calculating dependencies  Fetching binary packages info...
cache miss: 'x' --- cache hit: 'o'
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

And the "x" keep on appearing.

What's taking so long there? The directory index isn't that big (51k, see
<http://public-files.askwar.s3.amazonaws.com/public-files.askwar.gentoo-packages.s3.amazonaws.com_GentooUSB_packages_All.index.htm>).

Thanks,

Alexander Skwar
