When rebuilding a box, my emerge failed on kde-base/kicker-applets because it requested these files which weren't in the Manifest: kicker-applets-3.5.2.ebuild.orig kicker-applets-3.5.3.ebuild.orig I had just sync'd as part of building the box, but did it the next day anyway: no help. Workaround: I tar'd a recent kicker-applets ebuild on another box, uncompressed it over the bad one, and everything ran fine. # emerge --info Gentoo Base System version 1.6.14 Portage 2.0.54 (default-linux/x86/no-nptl, gcc-3.4.4, glibc-2.3.5-r2, 2.6.15-gentoo-r5 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.15-gentoo-r5 i686 Genuine Intel(R) CPU T2300 @ 1.66GHz dev-lang/python: 2.4.2 dev-python/pycrypto: [Not Present] dev-util/ccache: [Not Present] dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.12 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.12-r6 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-mtune=pentium4 -O3 -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-mtune=pentium4 -O3 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distlocks sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.osuosl.org/ http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo/ http://ftp.ucsb.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/gentoo/ http://gentoo.chem.wisc.edu/gentoo/ http://gentoo.mirrors.pair.com/ http://mirrors.acm.cs.rpi.edu/gentoo/ " MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.namerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X alsa apm arts audiofile avi bas-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts bzip2 cdr cli crypt cups dri dvd dvdr eds emboss encode expat fam foomaticdb fortran gdbm gif gmp gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 idn imlib ipv6 isdnlog jpeg kde lcms libg++ libwww mad mikmod mmx mng motif mp3 mpeg ncurses nls ogg opengl oss pam pcre pdflib perl php png pppd python qt quicktime readline reflection sdl session spell spl sse sse2 ssl tcpd tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev usb vorbis xml xml2 xmms xorg xv zlib userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: CTARGET, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS, PORTDIR_OVERLAY
Created attachment 89919 [details] Fix for anyone who finds this bug and can't continue building If you encounter this bug and don't have a fix for it / is holding you up, follow these steps for a workaround: # rm -rf /usr/portage/kde-base/kicker-applets # tar xvjpf path_to_this_file -C /usr/portage/kde-base If you examine this tar file: $ tar tvjf path_to_file you'll see it just has a replacement for the kicker-applets
Has been fixed in between.
