Description:   Opened: 2006-01-21 05:18 0000 
yes, it's the wrong syntax, but it shouldn't produce an internal error, isn't
it ? Here's what I mean:

n22 ~ # equery --nocolor --quiet list -i
/var/www/localhost/htdocs/apache_pb2.gif
!!! Internal portage error, terminating
!!! too many values to unpack

Try gentoolkit-0.2.2_pre4. It does not give that error for me.

Happens here with gentoolkit 0.2.2 (final)
I think it's about number of slashes in the atom

gehinom ~ # equery list a/b
[ Searching for package 'b' in 'a' among: ]
 * installed packages
gehinom ~ # equery list a/b/
!!! Internal portage error, terminating
!!! too many values to unpack
gehinom ~ # equery list a/b/c
!!! Internal portage error, terminating
!!! too many values to unpack

I've been looking through the equery script and it seems that the error is
thrown during package name parsing.

The exact location is line 1282:
(cat, name, ver, rev) = gentoolkit.split_package_name(query)

The problem seems to be that the gentoolkit function split_package_name does
not support queries not of the form "(cat(/name(-ver(-rev)?)?)?)?"

Any ideas?

------- Comment #4 From Toralf Förster 2007-08-20 18:29:11 0000 ------- 
app-portage/gentoolkit-0.2.3-r1 seems to have the same behaviour

------- Comment #5 From Roderick B. Greening 2007-09-04 19:05:00 0000 ------- 
Same thing with app-portage/gentoolkit-0.2.4_pre6.

equery --nocolor --quiet list -i /var/www/localhost/htdocs/apache_pb2.gif
!!! Internal portage error, terminating
!!! too many values to unpack

------- Comment #6 From Paul Varner 2007-10-08 18:46:38 0000 ------- 
This bug is not fixed.

Created an attachment (id=143923) [details]
equery_catch_list_filenames.diff

This patch puts some error handling around 

(cat, name, ver, rev) = gentoolkit.split_package_name(query)

that specifically checks for str(ValueError) == 'too many values to unpack'
because if gentoolkit.split_package_name(query) returns more than four values
it's indicative of a pattern with more than one slash in it, which cannot
possibly match any package.

------- Comment #8 From Paul Varner 2008-02-18 23:48:22 0000 -------

fed input with too many slashes. (Bug 119806)"

------- Comment #9 From Paul Varner 2008-02-21 01:51:37 0000 ------- 
Released in gentoolkit-0.2.4_rc2
