Not really our fault that your CONTENTS file got corrupt, sorry.
But how could this happen? I never changed the file manually. Currently i'm unable to reinstall mysql. I'm looking for a solution. So what can i do to fix this?
Either move the file away and re-emerge mysql, or fix it (stick dir prefix before dirs which are missing it etc).
