The second issue I experience is that I cannot update my system because I have 2 ebuilds that block the entire update. I've already seen this issue once and I found a solution by masking one of the blocking ebuild so I tried this time but the update cannot be done anyway. This problem is much more critical for me since I can't update my system anymore !
Here is the output of an " emerge -pvuDt world"

These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

Calculating world dependencies  ...... done!
[blocks B ] sys-apps/pam-login (is blocking sys-apps/shadow-4.0.15-r2) [blocks B ] sys-apps/utempter (is blocking sys-libs/libutempter-1.1.2.1)

Hello Yann,

you should:

1. unmask the packages you masked
2. emerge --unmerge pam-login
3. emerge --oneshot shadow
4. emerge --unmerge utempter
5. emerge -avDu world

IMPORTANT: Do NOT log out before step 3. If you logout after unmerging pam-login you will NOT be able to login again until you emerge shadow.

That should fix the blocking problem. pam-login has now been merged into shadow, so it is no longer needed. utempter..no idea what happened but it seems to have changed it's name.

As for the rsync issue: Have you tried using a different rsync server? Maybe you should use one of the generic ones like

SYNC="rsync://rsync.de.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"


Hope this helps,
JP
