Well, for some reason dns lookup for those sites fail. What happens |
| 13 |
when you put distfiles.gentoo.org in a web browser? You could also try |
| 14 |
pinging the repositories first, and if they get though, try emerge |
| 15 |
again. If emerge still fails, I'd try adding them to the host file with |
| 16 |
whatever ip you get from pinging as a workaround. |
