[gentoo-user] emerge not fetching anything

Hello,

Starting last update emerge stopped downloading packages, but syncing works.

For example:

Seems like it is a DNS problem, but resolv.conf has read permissions so portage
should have no problems.

I have tried using other mirrors, but no luck either.

Any ideas on what is happening and how to solve it?

Thanks in advance,
Dalmon Ian.

Not a DNS problem, just needed to rebuild wget because gblic was updated
not long ago.

discovered this by setting FETCHCOMMAND to
"strace wget -t 3 -T 60 --passive-ftp --user pypi-user --password pypi-user-secret -O \"\${DISTDIR}/\${FILE}\" \"\${URI}\""

wget was issuing a SIGFPE, so I remembered the glibc update.
