30 It means the maintainer of that package cocked up and did not redigest it
31 after a new commit.
32
33 Wait one hour, re-sync, try again.
34
35 Failing that, open a bug and report a digest failure for the package.
36
37 For the brave, just redigest it yourself if you are certain all the fules you
38 have for the package are legit: as root:
39
40 ebuild /path/to/any/ebuild/in/the/package.ebuild manifest
