Problems with emerge or ebuilds? Have a basic programming question about C, PHP, Perl, BASH or something else?

manifest mismatch

For months I've been having the manifest mismatch problem at the end of this log. However today it started happening that also a sync does not download files and the timestamp is not updated:

Code: Select all

Number of files: 161,651 (reg: 134,206, dir: 27,445)
Number of created files: 2 (reg: 2)
Number of deleted files: 8 (reg: 8)
Number of regular files transferred: 36
Total file size: 215.93M bytes
Total transferred file size: 633.63K bytes
Literal data: 633.63K bytes
Matched data: 0 bytes
File list size: 2.01M
File list generation time: 0.001 seconds
File list transfer time: 0.000 seconds
Total bytes sent: 30.21K
Total bytes received: 4.64M

sent 30.21K bytes  received 4.64M bytes  55.88K bytes/sec
total size is 215.93M  speedup is 46.28

Action: sync for repo: gentoo, returned code = 1
I'd appreciate any help.

Had the same problem with 3 gentoo systems, including my Pi3. Resolved with:

mv /usr/portage to /usr/old_portage
mkdir /usr/portage


Rerun emerge --sync.

I was never able to figure out exactly what was causing the manifest issue.

potuz ...

given the error seems to be triggered by 'hardlinks' you might dry disabling this (new) feature:

Code: Select all

sync-allow-hardlinks = no

I saw this issue for the first time today. That fix worked for me.

You will still get a message about manifest verification, but you won't be left in a weird state, with a hidden directory.

Just in case, I hit this again now and it turns out that it was due to rsync-excludes, I had to remove the file cause the missing Manifest.gz in each one of them was giving trouble. I am not sure if this is a bug in portage, since why would the sync system complain about a file that is being explicitly exlcuded in rsync-excludes?

I solved this by switching to another rsync mirror

Code: Select all

mirrorselect -ir
and then choosing whatever (I chose one in France, but either I'm very lucky or -almost- any one will do) :roll:

The hardlinks toggle worked for me as well. I've had this issue going on for months. Sometimes changing the mirror helped. Hopefully this will be the final solution going forward.

copy the example/default from /usr/share/portage/config/repos.conf to /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf and then add the no hardlinks line at the bottom.
