lists various possible causes, all of which involve complicated or
expensive fixes:
In a worst-case, you could try skipping manifest verification
altogether on the affected machine. You must do 2 steps to get that
working.
1) In /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf set...
sync-rsync-verify-metamanifest = no
The default installed setting is "yes"
2) Add the line...
sys-apps/portage -rsync-verify
...to package.use and then re-emerge portage.
emerge -1a portage
Ok, that's good to have a way ...
Question: (I know, this is old, but I'm still not comprehending it): why
wouldn't you want portage in your world set?
