What is wanted is the last few lines of the output *before* the compile failed, *and* all the lines of errors as it died. Generally, you'll get one error, and a short cascade of additional errors as the compile dies. If the compile generated a warning, but continued it'll probably have no impact. As for re-downloading from another mirror, that's a waste of effort, as portage checks the MD5 sum of the downloaded file before it unpacks it. So you can be sure you've got the correct file. Damn, I sound mean. Sorry, rather irritated after 9 hours at work alone, with 3 more to go, and tired :( -- Mike Williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> p.s. Richard Terry? (radiac?)
