I upgraded python to python-2.4.2 and then portage complains about something with pycrypto on every emerge. For example, output of "emerge pycrypto": Calculating dependencies ... done! >>> Emerging (1 of 1) dev-python/pycrypto-2.0.1-r5 to / >>> Creating Manifest for /usr/portage/dev-python/pycrypto Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 3524, in ? mydepgraph.merge(pkglist) File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 2056, in merge retval=portage.doebuild(y,"merge",myroot,self.pkgsettings,edebug,tree="porttree") File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 2958, in doebuild digestgen(aalist, mysettings, overwrite=0, myportdb=mydbapi) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 2341, in digestgen assumeDistHashesAlways=("assume-digests" in mysettings.features)) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage_manifest.py", line 431, in create self.fhashdict[mytype][f] = perform_multiple_checksums(self.pkgdir+f, self.hashes) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage_checksum.py", line 166, in perform_multiple_checksums raise portage_exception.DigestException, x+" hash function not available (needs dev-python/pycrypto)" portage_exception.DigestException: 'RMD160 hash function not available (needs dev-python/pycrypto)' (Additional question: howto correctly switch back to python-2.3 ? Is changing /usr/bin/python symlink enough ?)
Run python-updater like the ebuild told you...
Already tried. (To long to post here, I'll try to attach it. It tried to emerge pycrypto too.) So ? What's that "Creating Manifest" anyway ? Isn't manifest supposed to already exists ? Maybee there is some other problem - I'm updating my amd64 instalation, maybee it has some obsolete packages, but which ? I switched make.profile (from 2004), upgraded portage, did emerge metadata and emerge sync just in case and now I'm upgrading everything from glsa ... which includes python. I should had do =python-2.3* instead ...
Created attachment 90958 [details] Log of python-updater
Note: if I change /usr/bin/python to point to python-2.3, portage seems to work, but after emerge pycrypto and changing back no change. Should I try to python-updater which python-2.3 ?
s/which/with/
Well, sorry. Upgrade from 2004.x is not supported by amd64 any more, you are on your own here really. You had plenty of time to do it before, fresh reinstall is what's recommended now. Don't know how you did upgrade anyway, seems you did it manually in a completely wrong order. You can try FEATURES="-strict" emerge -1 pycrypto' and see if it helps.
What, you mean there is something needed besides changing that symlink ? Are you sure it is reason of my problems ? You know, python-updater really CAN'T help if emerge don't work ...

HA. -strict didn't worked, but changing python from 2.3 to 2.4 in middle of emerge pycrypto worked.
As said, upgrading from 2004 profiles is not supported, you'll hit tons more problems (like Bug 132135) etc.
Thanks for warning. I'll try it anyway. And I still think the python problem is unrelated.
Do you have some test which can say "ok, you have upgraded correctly", or will you simply say that every bug I encounter on my amd64 instalation (I have also several i386 ones which I upgrade more often) is because I missed something ? Like, am I safe when I can do emerge system ? (Note: I switched /lib* symlinks, made some new and I'm compiling glibc-2.3.6 now)
