This is probably related to an upgrade of libpcre recently, can you try: rm /etc/selinux/strict/contexts/files/file_contexts*.bin (if you dont use strict, change that to the type you use) Then update to sys-libs/libselinux-2.2.2-r5 which fixes the problem: emerge -u =sys-libs/libselinux-2.2.2-r5 After you have updated to that version of libselinux, try emerging e2fsprogs again.
yep, this did the trick. thank you! my records indicate that sys-libs/libselinux was upgraded to 2.2.2-r5 in june. dev-libs/libpcre was upgraded from 8.33 to 8.35 on july 17 and triggered breakage in portage. should i file a bug against libpcre then?
I hope that the change in libselinux will resolve this once and for all, although we might only know that when another upgrade is made. This is not a pcre issue, but a SELinux utilities issue. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 516608 ***
