On a x86 machine running Linux version 2.6.20-gentoo-r6, I tried |
2 |
emerge texlive-latexextra. |
3 |
The response began with |
4 |
[Errno 7] Argument list too long: |
5 |
/bin/bash -c touch "/usr/portage/distfiles/.__portage_test_write__" |
6 |
2>/dev/null ; rval=$? ; rm -f |
7 |
"/usr/portage/distfiles/.__portage_test_write__" ; exit $rval |
8 |
and ended with |
9 |
/usr/bin/wget -t 5 -T 60 --passive-ftp -O |
10 |
/usr/portage/distfiles/texlive-module-achemso-2008.tar.lzma |
11 |

12 |
!!! Couldn't download 'texlive-module-achemso-2008.tar.lzma'. Aborting. |
13 |
Doing "emerge -f texlive-latexextra" produced a similar failure. |
14 |
A related problem was discussed at |
15 |
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=262647 |
16 |
Although that bug is classified as "fixed", I'm still stuck. |
17 |
Suggestions for emerging texlive-latexextra would be greatly appreciated. |
