It can also happen if you are one a slow or lossy connection or have other network problems. I, for example, experienced similar problems when reverse DNS lookups did not work. In this case, you can try to set a longer timeout. For this, add PORTAGE_RSYNC_INITIAL_TIMEOUT=60 or something similar to /etc/make.conf Hope this helps, Florian Philipp
