Description
When extracting distfiles, paludis gives options for tar in wrong order. In my case it leads to tar waiting input from stdin. Example: # paludis -i world [snip]
Starting src_unpack Unpacking tzdata2007b.tar.gz to /var/tmp/paludis/sys-libs/timezone-data-2007b/work
tar zxf /usr/portage/distfiles/tzdata2007b.tar.gz --no-same-owner
[waits forewer]
Should be: tar xzf
# tar --version tar (GNU tar) 1.16.1

Uh, I don't think that's your problem. I think you have a broken gzip. If you do a ps auxww | grep gzip , do you see gzip -dc -dc -dc -dc ... repeating itself?
