Any attempt to access kdegraphics (which is /usr/portage/kde- base/kdegraphics/kdegraphics-3.0.ebuild) via emerge 1.8.18 when you have the "tetex" USE flag crashes portage. This means you cannot emerge kde, since it uses kdegraphics. You also cannot pretend emerge. Workaround (bad): remove tetex from USE flags. Here are the portage errors: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1228, in ? mydepgraph.create(mytype+" "+portage.root+" "+mykey,None,"--onlydeps" not in myopts) File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 415, in create if not self.create(mynew,mybigkey): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 407, in create mycheck=portage.db[dep]["vartree"].depcheck(mydep[dep]) File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 1853, in depcheck mysplit2=self.dep_wordreduce(mysplit2) File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 1878, in dep_wordreduce mydep=self.dep_depreduce(deplist[mypos]) File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 1948, in dep_depreduce if self.hasnode(mypkgdep): File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 1804, in hasnode myreskey=self.resolve_key(mykey) File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 1753, in resolve_key self.load(mykey) File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 2252, in load mycat,mypkg=string.split(mykey,"/") ValueError: unpack list of wrong size
Can you try Portage 1.9.3? I'm not getting this problem on cvs now and with 1.9.3. Maybe someone did a bad commit.
Portage 1.9.3 works. I was using 1.8.18 because that was what came with the stage2 tarball on the CDROM dated 4/8/2002. Thanks!
