Hi,

When I run emerge -uvDN world, I get the following problem with libpng
1.2.13:

!!! A file listed in the Manifest could not be found:
'/usr/portage/distfiles/libpng-manual.txt'

Perhaps I have --sync'ed with a broken mirror, but I have to wait to try
--sync again (one --sync per day rule).

Can anybody suggest a solution?

Thanks,
Joe.

Here is the output from emerge:

If you are at less than portage-2.1.1-r2 then upgrade portage. Either way I'd try removing /usr/portage/distfiles/libpng-manual.txt and then try again.

Ok, I have emerge --sync'ed.

portage is the latest stable version -i.e. 2.1.1-r2

/usr/distfiles/libpng-manual.txt does not exist - that is what portage is complaining about ;-)

Interestingly, if I manually download the file and place it in /usr/portage/distfiles, portage removes it, and says:
!!! Digest verification failed:
!!! /usr/portage/distfiles/libpng-manual.txt
!!! Reason: Filesize does not match recorded size
!!! Got: 128288
!!! Expected: 128275

Not sure if that helps, or is a red herring?
