Is this likely to be a (temporary?) problem with something on the portage servers? I did sync before on this same dvd and it was ok. Here's what it gives:
After downloading the latest ebuilds, it proceeds to 'Performing Global Updates:'
- Code: Select all
...
Performing Global Updates: /usr/portage/profiles/updates/3Q-2007
(Could take a couple of minutes if you have a lot of binary packages.)
.='update pass' *='binary update' @='/var/db move'
s='/var/db SLOT move' S='binary SLOT move' p='update /etc/portage/package.*'

I'm doing this on the live dvd because I want to make sure that the fixes described in this thread about libGL.so will work before actually installing.[/url]
