Description Stephen Steele 2006-07-26 14:18:35 UTC
following normal Gentoo handbook for installs - 
gentoo-nofb nox of 

livecd 2006.1 mini
md5sum stage3-i686-2006.1.tar.bz2
93913d58a0fb3d1c501349c3ae96c266  stage3-i686-2006.1.tar.bz2

portage
md5sum portage-2006.1.tar.bz2
6fca569ec0062d14ed9dc1b82678cf69  portage-2006.1.tar.bz2

emerge --sync gives error at end of invalid object in emerge. If I use snapshot from regular mirror no errors and all alright.  Continuing testing with regular portage from mirrors.

The actual error would be nice.
Comment 2 Stefan Kienzl 2006-07-27 02:30:34 UTC
I use the same minimal-install-cd, portage version and stage3-i686

# MD5 HASH
93913d58a0fb3d1c501349c3ae96c266 stage3-i686-2006.1.tar.bz2

Comment 3 Andrew Gaffney (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-07-27 05:02:36 UTC
It looks like this happens when the /etc/make.profile symlink is pointing to a non-existant profile. For some reason, it's pointing to the old location of the new 2006.1 profile. I'm rebuilding the i686 stage 2/3 now with the proper link.
Comment 4 Andrew Gaffney (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-07-27 07:02:02 UTC
The stage2-i686 is rebuilt and uploaded. stage3-i686 is uploading now. The new one should be up in ~30 minutes.
Comment 5 Stefan Kienzl 2006-07-27 08:56:20 UTC
alright, it's now working but there is this alert:

livecd / # emerge -Duav world

!!! Your current profile is deprecated and not supported anymore.
!!! Please upgrade to the following profile if possible:
        defult-linux/x86/2006.0                                                                                                                            

this might be because 2006.1 is not released yet, so I post it here to be shure :-)
Comment 6 Andrew Gaffney (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-07-27 09:02:46 UTC
Yes, that will be removed when 2006.1 is released. It's there to attempt to keep curious people from playing with it before it's ready :)
Comment 7 Andrew Gaffney (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-07-27 09:03:27 UTC
Fixed in latest stage2/3-i686 tarballs
