A recent glibc update has apparently had an effect on wget and its use of |
| 21 |
/etc/resolv.conf. See http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-810843.html. I |
| 22 |
had a similar experience in which some applications had no issue with dns, |
| 23 |
but emerge failed to find some distribution files until resolv.conf was |
| 24 |
cleaned up. |
