I'm unable to unmerge kvirc 3.0.0_beta2 due to an error I get with the command `emerge unmerge kvirc` Here's the error I get: --- !found obj /usr/share/kvirc/3.0.0-beta2/help/en/fnc_active.html cp: cannot stat `/usr/share/kvirc/3.0.0-beta2/help/en/fnc_.lag.html': No such file or directory Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1411, in ? if 1==unmerge(myaction, myfiles): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1123, in unmerge retval=portage.unmerge(mysplit[0],mysplit[1],portage.root) File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 1517, in unmerge mylink.unmerge() File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 3532, in unmerge mymd5=perform_md5(obj, calc_prelink=1) File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 1505, in perform_md5 return perform_checksum(x, calc_prelink)[0] File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 69, in perform_checksum retval = fchksum.fmd5t(prelink_tmpfile) IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/tmp/portage-prelink.tmp' It falls back to the command line after that. `emerge info`: Portage 2.0.46-r4 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.1, glibc-2.3.1-r2) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.20-lolo-r1_rc3 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) processor USE="x86 oss 3dnow apm avi crypt cups encode gif jpeg libg++ libwww mikmod mmx mpeg ncurses pdflib png qtmt quicktime spell truetype xml2 xmms xv zlib gtkhtml gdbm berkdb slang readline arts bonobo svga java guile X sdl gpm tcpd pam ssl perl python esd imlib oggvorbis gnome gtk qt kde motif opengl mozilla cdr -nls -alsa" ARCH="x86" COMPILER="gcc3" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=athlon-tbird -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math" CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon-tbird -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math" ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/qmail/control /usr/share/config /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb:/usr/kde/3.1/share/config:/usr/share/config:/opt/quake3/cpma/server.cfg" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" MAKEOPTS="-j2" JDK_HOME="/opt/sun-j2sdk-1.4.0" JAVA_HOME="/opt/sun-j2sdk-1.4.0" AUTOCLEAN="yes" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" I have FEATURES="prelink" in my make.conf.
Disclaimer: I'm not a member of the gentoo development team. Out of curiousity, why are you unmerging kvirc-3.0.0-beta2? Have you seen bug 13689?
I don't have any problem unmerging kvirc-3.0.0_beta2. As far as I know, I'm not using 'prelink'. :-)
this happens with wine and nvidia drivers as well, nick
Try portage-2.0.46-r6
I'm using 2.0.46-r6 and I'm having the same problems when unmerging wine.
Please provide the CONTENTS file for a package that this problem occurs with. You'll find it in /var/db/pkg/<category>/<package>/CONTENTS E.g.: /var/db/pkg/<dev-java/java-config-0.2.7/CONTENTS I'm thinking that is a /tmp file got included in the package CONTENTS, /tmp is emptied, it might cause this problem...?
