I'm having problems trying to install KDE on this new machine. Specifcally, things will run along just fine (but not very far), until the following occurs:

>>> No message digest entry found for archive "kdelibs-3.1.1a.tar.bz2."
!!! Most likely a temporary problem. Try 'emerge rsync' again later.
!!! If you are certain of the authenticity of the file then you may type
!!! the following to generate a new digest:
!!! ebuild /usr/portage/category/package/package-version.ebuild digest

In poking around, I observe that the file mentioned is being downloaded to distfiles, but that both the ebuiild file and the digest file seem to be intending to use kdelibs-3.1.1.tar.bz2 and a diff file to update to 3.1.1a; they contain no entry for the "a" version. I'm guessing that the new version source file only recently became available, and that the ebuild file is not properly updated for this, but I'll cheerfully admit that I haven't yet learned enough about the whole Portage process to be able to figure out what should be changed. I'm assuming that someone out there can fix the ebuild file, to where I can just resync and continue; until then, I think I'm dead in the water...

^b.

I'm having this same issue trying to get to kdevelop. It's choking on app-doc/kdelibs-apidocs-3.1.1a.

Beuller?

Since my last emerge rsync, the problem has changed: now it appears (if I'm reading the config.log correctly) that my libpcre was compiled w/o POSIX support, which looks like it must be necessary for kdelib to compile properly. The digest problem appears to be fixed, but it's just moved the problem further downstream. At least I think it's downstream - it's also possible that the changes made to make the other problem go away have me looking at new source code...

Well it seems to be completely fixed for me. I've got libpcre installed too, cause of postfix.

I'll post again if it's broke and I'm not seeing it, but at this point it looks to be resolved.

... or you can just remerge libpcre (something suggested in another thread) - it's pretty small and doesn't take too long, and it will set the link for you. That's what I did, and now my merge of KDE is cranking away in the backgound. I declare this thread to be pretty much done - gotta go get some lunch!
