Even downloading it from an official > mirror? Yes, I get the error when I do a emerge of some new package which is downloaded from a official site. I look closer at the emerge output and found a resume. That seemed odd. I tried to tar -jtvf /usr/portage/distfile/aterm... and got the error message: Not in zip format or something to that effect. So did a less on the file and found to my surprize HTML code at the beginning. Then I remembered with the http-replicator it said to create a /etc/portage/mirror file with the mirror in it. I nuked that file and emerge started working again. Now I am back to a pointer where I can try to figure out what when wrong with http-replicator. Thanks for all the help. -- Darryl Wagoner Office: 603-891-3068> -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
