In An Intro to Portage it's emerge --sync and if that 
fails, emerge-websync but that failed too.

PORTDIR=/usr/portage

After 4 hrs it quit. A list of /usr/portage revealed
no changes. But this morning after entering emerge
--sync I note the tree *is* 
being updated.

This is similar to what I see followed by millions of
lines like this:

/(something)/(something)/(something)
  some-number 100% 0.00 kB/s 0:00:00


Yesterday it quit with the message, error in rsync
