| 1 | Howdy, |

| 3 | I've been running into this a while now. It seems one server is no |
| 4 | longer hosting, is broken or something and it results in wasted time as |
| 5 | it attempts to use it and retries many times. The server is |
| 6 | gentoo.mirrors.easynews.com. I just removed it from make.conf so that I |
| 7 | don't run into the problem anymore. While that likely fixes my problem, |
| 8 | should I reach out to someone and report that that server is no longer |
| 9 | working so it can be either fixed or removed from the lists? If so, |
| 10 | who/where do I report it? b.g.o maybe? This is what I get: |

| 38 | I also get this for another server but it could be the file just isn't |
| 39 | there. It may be a permissions problem on their end tho. I'm not sure. |
