Just to answer my own question here, it seems that removing the
archive file
/usr/portage/distfiles/RealPlayer-10.0.3.748-20050223.i586.rpm
and letting emerge download it again got me back on track...
Still not sure how I ended up with a bad rpm file that stopped
my update. It wasn't a disk space problem because the bad file
(now in /tmp) was larger than the replacement:
6679649 Apr 19 20:28 /tmp/RealPlayer-10.0.3.748-20050223.i586.rpm
6642448 Apr 19 20:29
/usr/portage/distfiles/RealPlayer-10.0.3.748-20050223.i586.rpm
I wonder where the extra 37201 bytes came from....
