I'm not worried about the server that was slow since I removed it. I think it was easylist or something. Maybe it was having a bad day, something slowing things down between me and it. Either way, it doesn't matter. What I'm wondering, why doesn't the log file get updated when I have to restart a fetch? It fetches fine but emerge doesn't update the logs on second attempts. I've noticed this in the past but thought it was just me hitting some sort of glitch. Thing is, I noticed it not updating several months ago and it still doesn't update on second attempts. There has to be more to this. It seems emerge has developed a bug or some nifty new feature that prevents logs from being updated. ;-)
I might add, on occasion I have to switch servers. They are fast and work fine for sometimes years and then slow down or stop working completely. Me and the mirrorselect tool are pretty good friends. I even had to switch sync servers a while back. It got to where it was slow and then just plain stopped. I think it stopped hosting Gentoo stuff. The site was up and all but nothing Gentoo anymore. Still curious about emerge-fetch.log not being updated on second attempts tho. Dale :-) :-)
