Using Portage 2.2.00.11472-prefix then the following will fail emerge -u gettext with a traceback from portage. This is due to a method (isMasterLink) referencing an unknown variable obj_key. portage.dbapi.vartree:LinkageMapMachO.isMasterLink looks like this ... def isMasterLink(self, obj): " ... doc string removed ..." basename = os.path.basename(obj) if obj_key not in self._obj_properties: raise KeyError("%s (%s) not in object list" % (obj_key, obj)) install_name = self._obj_properties[obj_key][1] return (len(basename) < len(os.path.basename(install_name))) It should probably line added at the beginning ... obj_key = self._ObjectKey(obj) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -u gettext 2. 3. Actual Results: >>> Installing sys-devel/gettext-0.17 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Volumes/MacData/Users/derek/gentoo/usr/bin/emerge", line 20, in <module> retval = _emerge.emerge_main() ...
