It has been awhile since we powered up the Sparc64 box we loaded Gentoo on in this article. Well, links was not on the box, and we wanted it. Emerge failed:
srv-44 scsi # emerge links
.
.
.
!!! Couldn't download links-2.1_pre2-patch.tar.bz2. Aborting.

Doh! We have to emerge portage and sync it:
srv-44 scsi # emerge portage
Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 1) sys-apps/portage-2.0.47-r8 to /
>>> md5 ;-) portage-2.0.47-r8.tar.bz2
>>> Unpacking source...
tar xjf /usr/portage/distfiles/portage-2.0.47-r8.tar.bz2
>>> Source unpacked.
./create-localdecls

srv-44 scsi # emerge sync

srv-44 scsi # emerge links

That is better!! Agatha says: "When upgrading Gentoo, don't forget to emerge portage and emerge sync". And, that's the truth.
