With the sync url now defined in /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf, you either want to comment out the line in /etc/portage/make.conf where SYNC is defined, or get rid of it all together. For the time being, I chose the former. grep uri /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf sync-uri = rsync://rsync.uk.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage % grep SYNC /etc/portage/make.conf #SYNC="rsync://rsync.uk.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"
