[[Solved] /distfiles/gcc-7.4.0-to-svn-266882.patch not found]

This issue is solved. The problem was related to an incorrect GENTOO_MIRRORS entry in make.conf. Once the entry was removed, gcc complied without issue.

[[Solved] /distfiles/gcc-7.4.0-to-svn-266882.patch not found]

Hello,

I am attempting to update from 1.2 to 1.3. I have a server running 1.2 without X. ego version is 2.7.4-r2. When attempting to update gcc, "emerge -u1 gcc" I get a fetch failure with the following message:

rsync: link_stat "/distfiles/gcc-7.4.0-to-svn-266882.patch" (in gentoo) failed: No such file or directory (2)

Any idea how to correct or work around!

Many thanks.

[profile problems during installation]

Hello all,

I discovered my problem. I had a separate lvm for distfiles mounted under /usr/portage/distfiles. After a more careful read of the above error message I unmounted the distfiles lvm and deleted the distfiles directory under /usr/portage.

 

With an empty /usr/portage directory, as it should be per the stage3 tar ball, I re-ran "emerge --sync" and everything proceeded correctly. So this problem is solved.

 

Thanks,

Dan

[profile problems during installation]

I am working through a new funtoo install and am running into trouble installing a portage snapshot. I have untarred the stage3-latest into the chrooted environment. However when I attempt "emerge-sync" I get the following error:

 

(chroot) sysresccd / # emerge --sync
>>> Syncing repository 'gentoo' into '/usr/portage'...
/usr/bin/git clone --depth 1 git://github.com/funtoo/ports-2012.git .
fatal: destination path '.' already exists and is not an empty directory.
!!! git clone error in /usr/portage
q: Updating ebuild cache in /usr/portage ...

!!! ParseError: Parent '/usr/portage/profiles/funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/arch/x86-64bit' not found: '/etc/portage/make.profile/parent'

 

I discovered that in several recent stages (x86_64) there is nothing in /usr/portage, no profile information and no .git directory.  I get git errors if I attempt "git checkout funtoo.org" from /usr/portage. Finally, I have been unable to get to any portage shapshots, all the links are broken (403 errors).

 

Any help is greatly appreciated.
