Can you apply the following patch and paste the error message it provides? http://gentoo.twobit.net/portage/portage-2.0.48_pre2-findname.diff cd /usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages patch < /path/to/portage-2.0.48_pre2-findname.diff emerge -f world
Big Thanks. It seems to be working now.
Hi, I followed the same steps as the other person and got the same errors. Applied the patch and still got the errors. I am pasting them below. trippedwire root # emerge -f world Calculating world dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 68) sys-apps/man-pages-1.56 to / >>> emerge (2 of 68) sys-libs/zlib-1.1.4-r1 to / >>> emerge (3 of 68) x11-themes/gnome-themes-2.2.1 to / >>> emerge (4 of 68) x11-themes/gnome-icon-theme-1.0.2 to / >>> emerge (5 of 68) sys-devel/autoconf-2.57-r1 to / >>> emerge (6 of 68) sys-devel/automake-1.7.2 to / >>> emerge (7 of 68) media-libs/alsa-lib-0.9.2 to / >>> emerge (8 of 68) media-sound/alsa-utils-0.9.2 to / >>> emerge (9 of 68) media-libs/alsa-oss-0.9.1 to / >>> emerge (10 of 68) sys-apps/findutils-4.1.7-r4 to / >>> emerge (11 of 68) sys-apps/modutils-2.4.25 to / >>> emerge (12 of 68) sys-apps/file-4.02 to / >>> emerge (13 of 68) media-libs/libungif-4.1.0.1b to / >>> emerge (14 of 68) app-editors/emacs-21.3-r1 to / >>> emerge (15 of 68) sys-apps/procps-3.1.8 to / >>> emerge (16 of 68) app-emulation/xmame-0.62.2-r1 to / >>> emerge (17 of 68) sys-apps/man-1.5l-r2 to / >>> emerge (18 of 68) kde-base/kdelibs-3.1.1a to / ssl alsa cups x86 >>> emerge (19 of 68) kde-base/kdegraphics-3.1.1a-r1 to / >>> emerge (20 of 68) kde-base/kdebase-3.1.1a to / pam motif encode cups oggvorbis opengl ssl pam java >>> emerge (21 of 68) kde-base/kde-3.1.1a to / >>> emerge (22 of 68) dev-lang/perl-5.8.0-r10 to / >>> emerge (23 of 68) app-admin/gkrellm-2.1.9 to / >>> emerge (24 of 68) sys-apps/help2man-1.29 to / >>> emerge (25 of 68) sys-apps/diffutils-2.8.4-r3 to / >>> emerge (26 of 68) sys-apps/gawk-3.1.2-r3 to / >>> emerge (27 of 68) sys-apps/gzip-1.3.3-r1 to / >>> emerge (28 of 68) sys-apps/sed-4.0.7 to / >>> emerge (29 of 68) media-libs/fontconfig-2.1-r1 to / >>> emerge (30 of 68) media-libs/freetype-2.1.4 to / Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1862, in ? mydepgraph.merge(mydepgraph.altlist()) File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1098, in merge y=portage.portdb.findname(x[2]) File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 3032, in findname return self.root+"/"+mysplit[0]+"/"+psplit[0]+"/"+mysplit[1]+".ebuild" TypeError: unsubscriptable object trippedwire root # emerge --version Portage 2.0.47-r10 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.2, glibc-2.3.1-r4) trippedwire root # emerge info Portage 2.0.47-r10 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.2, glibc-2.3.1-r4) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.19-gentoo-r10 i686 Pentium III (Coppermine) GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu/ http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/qmail/control /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/3.1/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" USE="x86 oss 3dnow apm avi crypt cups encode gif jpeg libg++ libwww mikmod mmx mpeg ncurses nls pdflib png quicktime spell truetype xml2 xmms xv zlib gtkhtml alsa gdbm berkdb slang readline arts bonobo svga tcltk java guile X sdl gpm tcpd pam ssl perl python esd imlib oggvorbis gnome gtk qt kde motif opengl mozilla" COMPILER="gcc3" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=i686 -pipe" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=i686 -pipe" ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" MAKEOPTS="-j2" AUTOCLEAN="yes" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" FEATURES="sandbox ccache"
Paleck: Can you try it again please? I don't think you successfully applied the patch. It should have interupted the traceback and provided debug. Or even better... Use portage-2.0.48_pre5 or better. You'll have to unmask it in package.mask though. It should be in stable around by Wednesday.
