I am building a "Prefix Gentoo" tree on a Solaris/sparc machine, following the guide http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/gentoo-alt/prefix/bootstrap-solaris.xml (May 7, 2007 version). At Code Listing 1.23 the `emerge -e world' command fails (see messages pasted into "Actual Results"). I have scripted the whole setting up of Prefix Gentoo and the script used to run successfully, so my guess is that this is due to a recent change in Portage (changes in the apr-util or subversion package). Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: See attached script; beware of the fact that various settings in the script must be revised before actually running it. Actual Results: Excerpt from console log: Performing Global Updates: /var/tmp/rafo/g1/usr/portage/profiles/updates/1Q-2007 (Could take a couple of minutes if you have a lot of binary packages.) .='update pass' *='binary update' @='/var/db move' s='/var/db SLOT move' S='binary SLOT move' p='update /etc/portage/package.*' ...................... * IMPORTANT: 1 config files in '/var/tmp/rafo/g1/etc' need updating. * Type emerge --help config to learn how to update config files. * An update to portage is available. It is _highly_ recommended * that you update portage now, before any other packages are updated. * Please run 'emerge portage' and then update ALL of your * configuration files. * To update portage, run 'emerge portage'. These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating world dependencies . !!! Problem resolving dependencies for dev-util/subversion !!!

Created attachment 123312 [details] Script that produced the error
I see, I'll check and keyword appropriately.
@script, you might want to take a look at the prefix-launcher project on sourceforge. It is intended to a broader audience then your script, but has the same purpose as yours, to be better than the bootstrap pages. http://prefix-launcher.wiki.sourceforge.net/ The author of that page is in the process of becoming a Gentoo developer. (please have some patience, as my Sparc machine isn't of the lightspeed type)
apr and apr-util are now ~sparc-solaris allowing subversion to compile. Thanks!
Thanks for the pointer to http://prefix-launcher.wiki.sourceforge.net/, I will look into it!
