I really like using tab completion, that's why i often run into the following: crubbbox portage # emerge media-video/mplayer/ Calculating dependencies !!! Couldn't find match for media-video/mplayer/; aborting. Whereas, after deleting the / it obviously works as it should :) crubbbox portage # emerge media-video/mplayer Calculating dependencies... done! [...] My suggestion: Detect if a / is used as the last character and in that case, strip it off! I hope this is correctly filed in portage this time :) -ceed
will be fixed in Portage 1.8.4. Fixed any minute on cvs.
