26 OK, I've changed the gv ebuild, though it's rather a guess, but it's the only
27 thing I can think of.
28 If that doesn't help after rsync, could you try to extract and install the gv
29 sources yourself, and see if that works?
30 A final question: after the make error, emerge shuold say it failed to run
31 something - what's that something? I want to know if it failed to compile or
32 to install.
