emerge --sync does not complete while rsync reports strange unlink errors in function delete_one. Reproducible: Always Steps to reproduce: 1. sudo emerge --sync Expected Results: sync of portage tree Actual results: After rsyncing new files, rsync reports hundreds of strange errors. (see below) Manually unlinking these files (sudo rm /usr/portage/file) always works without any problem.
