Thanks,

This is what I see:

$ cat armv5te-poky-linux-gnueabi/acl-2.2.49-r0/temp/log.do_unpack
gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
NOTE: Unpacking 
/home/psanchez/Oven/poky-4.0-build/downloads/acl-2.2.49.src.tar.gz to 
/home/psanchez/Oven/poky-4.0-build/tmp/work/armv5te-poky-linux-gnueabi/acl-2.2.49-r0/
ERROR: Task failed:

$ file poky-4.0-build/downloads/acl-2.2.49.src.tar.gz
poky-4.0-build/downloads/acl-2.2.49.src.tar.gz: HTML document text

The mirror where bb is configured to get acl from, mirror.cinquix.com, 
is down. I'll try to get it from the Savannah site.

Thanks again,
