The unmasking fixed nothing on this end. |

I probably download the wrong set of files. Current isn't stated in the |
| 56 |
file names though it is on directory paths. It might help as a check to |
| 57 |
put stable or current in as part of the file names in future. I've |
| 58 |
cleaned the hard drive of gentoo and will start over if I can figure how |
| 59 |
to do it correctly. |
