Bug 22089 – Portage autocleans & continues next emerge despite failures

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Portage Development

[Description Narada Sage 2003-06-02 05:24:02 UTC]

Following an 'emerge sync' and 'emerge -Du world 2>&1 | tee /tmp/emerge.log' it
seemed that portage was failing on certain emerges but continued on to autoclean
(unmerge) the older versions and also then proceeded onto the next emerge in the
list.  Please look at the attached emerge.log for more detail.  The packages in
my update world list were ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.05-r5, lib-compat-1.2 and
frozen-bubble-1.0.0-r1.

Also, despite the package emerge processes appearing to fail it seems that the packages have in fact been upgraded and installed.  On another machine, these same upgrades worked fine although I could not see any major differences in configuration between the two machines.

This is a failure at the unmerge stage, so it's not really a problem.
The eclass appears to have been removed, but it should in no way
affect the unmerge process (if it does, then that is a bug for the
eclass.)

I'll see about fixing the error messages for this case.

[Comment 5 Narada Sage 2003-06-19 12:26:15 UTC]

Please close this bug.  The perl-post.eclass has been committed back into cvs AFAIK and the portage aspect has been answered by carpaski.  So there is not much remaining to be discussed.  Thanks.

[Comment 6 Heinrich Wendel (RETIRED) 2003-08-23 15:48:14 UTC]

Reason - Deceptive output led to bug being filed but as carpaski says this 
is not a problem.
