I didn't have the download issue, but I did have the digest issue. Even |
| 2 |
though the file in question was in /usr/portage/distfiles/, I was |
| 3 |
getting a "File Not Found" error with an extra slash in the path (ie |
| 4 |
/usr/portage/distfiles//package.tar.bz2). Deleting the contents of that |
| 5 |
directory resolved that particular issue. |

Hey guys, |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
I thought maybe these issues were related to my home systems, but I've |
| 26 |
noticed the same problems here at work today. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Over the weekend while doing emerges, I noticed that downloads during |
| 29 |
emerge would just freeze and not resume. I could kill the emerge, |
| 30 |
restart it, and the download would complete. But then the other issue is |
| 31 |
that 85% |
| 32 |
- 95% of all files downloaded while emerging end up with digest errors. |
| 33 |
I delete the file, re-run emerge, and it works fine (sometimes). |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
What is going on here? Is there some new DoS causing the downloads to |
| 36 |
hang? If so, what's up with the bad digests? I haven't noticed any new |
| 37 |
attacks in my IDS logs, but I haven't been paying much attention to my |
| 38 |
firewall logs.. could there be some exploit intercepting emerge |
| 39 |
downloads? |
