At that time there was no digest verification error which means that the digest fitted that tar file. When I reinstalled yesterday (after the ebuild had been bumped to -r1) but with the name of the tar file unchanged I ran into a digest verification error because the digest had changed to fit the newer, bigger tar file with the same name.

At least in my case this bug showed when I upgraded from perl-cleaner-1.03 to perl-cleaner-1.03-r1. Those two ebuilds are identical and use the same tar file as source. This means that when I originally (a couple of weeks ago) installed 1.03 the digest fitted the other, smaller tar file, which means that devs has approved both versions of that tar file). It did install successfully (and seemed to work) so it couldn't be too corrupted.

Proper procedure is: 1. Make sure you've sync'ed recently 2. If the file in question lives in distfiles delete it and let it download again. 3. Perhaps find another mirror. 4. File a bug report (if others haven't already done so). The digest verification is there to make sure that you get the same software that the devs intended you to get. By making your own digest you override this security measure. In this case the tar file changed without changing the name after you originally installed the package (or after it was downloaded to the mirror that you are using...). This change could be a bugfix.

List, I suppose that I just found it odd that it popped up after I switched to GCC 4.1.1. Maybe coincidence. I'll delete all my digest files and let them download again, because this is popping up on quite a few packages. Maybe a bad mirror. I will be going on vacation for about a week, and when I get back I'll try to do all this again, hell, maybe even from a fresh install. I hear the benefits are worth it. I've read a few things about 4.1.1 not playing well with GTK packages on the forums, however, and that still appears to be the case. I'll get exact error messages when I return and bring this thread up again. Thanks to everyone who responded! -- Jason Weisberger [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Most likely the Manifest was updated (via an emerge --sync) after I merged 1.03. But there was no bump in the ebuild version, so I never saw this on any of my normal upgrades...not until I tried to merge it again. These packages quit on me after telling me that the reported filesize by the ebuild wasn't equal to the downloaded filesize. This only happened with gcc-config 6 (4.1.1). When I switched back to 3.4.5, emerge -e world was flawless. Very odd. Can you elaborate on this? I cannot duplicate it: carcharias ~ # gcc-config 1 * Switching native-compiler to i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.6 ... Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache...

Digest verification failed: !!! /usr/portage/packages/sources/perl-cleaner-1.03.tar.gz !!! Reason: Filesize does not match recorded size !!! Got: 4954 !!! Expected: 4611 In any case this should be solved by deleting the offending distfiles and letting them be downloaded again. I also had several packages quit on me related to gnome and GTK. Complaints were usually related to GTK being compiled and installed, however would not run. Without more data (the specific error messages), it is hard to say whether this is related to the 4.1.1 upgrade or not. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Very odd. so run ebuild blabla.ebuild digest wow, that is hard... if you are trying software from the ~ tree, you are expected to deal with some hiccups. btw, I did the gcc 3.4.x-->4.1 step some weeks ago. And just to be safe, I did an -e system followed by an -e world. Was a good decision - I did not run in any major problems. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

See my "Upgrading to gcc 4.1: emerge -e world required?" > thread. Yea, since the soname was the same, I was under the impression that mixing would be fine, and I never ran into a problem. Now that I have unmasked it and more people are testing, I see that people are actually running into issues. So, my mistake. Sorry. If you are doing any upgrade of GCC that is something like 3.3->3.4, or 3.4->4.1, recompiling everything is probably a good first step to ensuring your system will be sane. We try to cut down on work that people will have to do and see if mixed installs will work, but in this case, I was wrong that you would be able to do that. > >If these are the type of problems we're going to see with 4.1.1, I > >would have to vote that it stay masked. > > Yep. I've yet to see cause for saying this. Moving to a completely new version of gcc, as in 3.x -> 4.x, is a huge move. I think the small amount of problems that we are seeing now is great, and if you are using ~arch, you should expect little bumps in the road. We can only do so much testing in p.mask, and all of the people using it there were telling me that it was working fine for them. > > "Testing" isn't even the word > >for this so far.

Just following the GCC Upgrading Guide [1], and you should be fine. There will always be a few people that run into problems, and there isn't much we can do about that.

[gentoo-user] GCC 4.1.1 Problems
List, I figure upgrading to GCC 4.1.1 from 3.4.5 wouldn't be such a pain, right? WRONG. So far I've had just about every problem under the sun, mostly in the form of filesize errors which I wouldn't think would be related to GCC, but then again: app-admin/perl-cleaner x11-proto/xextproto x11-proto/xcmiscproto-1.1.2 These packages quit on me after telling me that the reported filesize by the ebuild wasn't equal to the downloaded filesize. This only happened with gcc-config 6 (4.1.1). When I switched back to 3.4.5, emerge -e world was flawless. Very odd. I also had several packages quit on me related to gnome and GTK. Complaints were usually related to GTK being compiled and installed, however would not run. If these are the type of problems we're going to see with 4.1.1, I would have to vote that it stay masked. "Testing" isn't even the word for this so far. I had to revert back to my 3.4.5 gcc and re-emerge system after having too many errors to warrant continuing.
