Hello!
Tryed to install samba and got error message:

>>> Downloading 'http://ndevilla.free.fr/iniparser/iniparser3.0b.tar.gz'
2012-11-17 12:39:19 Error 404: Not Found.
!! Couldn't download 'iniparser3.0b.tar.gz'. Aborting.

This file really doesn't exists at http://ndevilla.free.fr/iniparser/. But iniparser-3.0.tar.gz exists.
How to workaround this issue? Should I update all the portage tree or may be only net-fs/samba?
I'm afraid to update all the tree because I never updated portage tree since gentoo was installed (five monthes ago). Could this update break all the dependencies?

You should update the Portage tree and then update all installed packages. You should do this at least once a month. Systems which have not been updated for an extended period become difficult to update. Five months is longer than I would like, but is probably new enough that you will not see any major problems this time.

Thanks for reply.
Yes, I've updated a tree and installed samba client. Samba client works.
As for system update, I prefer full reinstallation instead of updating. Usually it is faster and easier than fixing errors raised during update.
