Erase /usr/portage/distfiles/perl-cleaner-1.03.tar.gz and re-emerge *may* fix it. Worked for me. - Mark On 5/28/06, Jarry [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, today emerge showed me following error while updating perl-cleaner: !!!

This is probably the third time this is brought up on this list.. ;) Just make sure you have sync'ed portage recently, delete the file in question and try again. http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=134449 -- Bo Andresen pgpjsp1ok6vve.pgp Description: PGP signature

Jarry -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list Although I have read that removing /usr/portage/distfiles/perl-cleaner-1.03.tar.gz has worked for others, it didn't work for me. What did work was getting it from another mirror. I hadn't changed mirrors since I installed Gentoo a year and a half ago. This document helped me. I don't know if the more knowledgeable Gentoo users will think this is the best way to go, but it worked for me to set another mirror. http://linuxreviews.org/gentoo/mirrors/ Regards, Colleen -- Registered Linux User #411143 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I deleted mine and it worked fine. Maybe the people that run the mirror need to remove their old copy. Dale :-) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Ok, I read your post and I see that it was a dangerous advice by breaking a security measure. I think I didn't quite understand the digest utility, but now I do and I won't do it again on my system.

Sorry, I'm quite sure that you (and others) didn't intensionally provide bad advice... ;) Actually I have not been able to locate any kind of official Gentoo documentation that tells users what to do when they run into a digest verification error. I have opened a bug [1] about that in light of the last couple of days where I have seen at least 4 users on IRC and on this list who had trouble with this..
