23 Hi,
24
25 I encountered the same problem.
26 I unmerged sys-libs/ss, sys-libs/com_err and sys-fs/e2fsprogs.
27 Of course everything was broken and wget did not work anymore...
28 So i downloaded sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.40.9.tar.gz with Firefox browser to
29 /usr/portage/distfile and put >sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.40.9 in package.mask.
30 Then I could emerge sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.40.9.
31 Now sys-libs/ss-1.40.9, sys-libs/com_err-1.40.9 and
32 sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.40.9 are installed and everything works fine.
33
34 Cheers,
