the unpacked tarball results in a directory named "portage", not "snapshot-xxxxxxxx". either way, the "emerge-webrsync" is merely a bash shell script. you can easily find it by googling: http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/*checkout*/portage/main/trunk/bin/emerge-webrsync which contains the rsync command i already pasted. the tarball too is a simple thing which can be found via google: http://gentoo.osuosl.org/snapshots/portage-20080219.tar.bz2 and verified via md5: http://gentoo.osuosl.org/snapshots/portage-20080219.tar.bz2.md5sum the tarball contains no file or link named "180". either eial has a buggy filesystem/kernel, or rsync screwed something up, or one of the fixes we apply in Gentoo (all of which are from rsync upstream) is causing a problem. it is not the fault of emerge-webrsync. -mike
