After a bad emerge -C python call i had to reinstall python from sources, after that i used: emerge -av python and then python-updater did nothing Java VM was not working properly after this, i had to: ln -s /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/java_config /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/java_config_2 ln -s /usr/local/bin/depend-java-query /usr/bin/depend-java-query ln -s /usr/local/bin/java-config-2 /usr/bin/java-config-2 To be able to reinstall java and reconfigure it. Now app-office/openoffice-2.4.1 is crashing, log will be attached I guess my python installation is messed up How to fix, i guess reinstall gentoo, but if there is a way to fix this easier would be better. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge -C python 2.compile python from sources 3.emerge python Actual Results: Installed python and it didn't linked all libs to it Expected Results: Should reinstall python and relink all libs emerge --info Portage 2.1.4.4 (default-linux/x86/2007.0, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.6.1-r0, 2.6.24-gentoo-r8 i686)

Don't start these damn symlinking actions. Best way to introduce hard to track down issues, you'll notice sooner or (even much) later. Did you try a revdep-rebuild run? The UCS2 issues show up, when togging the respective use flag and not rebuild all packages using Python. And no, unless you know what you do very well, you don't want to have the ucs2 use flag set.
You could have just asked a developer for an x86 dev-lang/python-2.5.2-r5.tbz2 tarball before re-emerging python the normal way - circumventing the package manager isn't supported, or we wouldn't have a package manager and be called LFS[1]. :) With that out of the way, you could do the above, and then after a complete `emerge world' you could emerge app-portage/portage-utils and use its `qfile --orphans /' to target for removal the remaining orphaned files (that do not belong to a package, but do be careful).

Thank you for replays, this machine is just for testing, even if i am using it daily as my desktop :) Now here it is my emerge -av python: dev-lang/python-2.5.2-r5 USE="berkdb examples gdbm ipv6 ncurses readline ssl threads tk -bootstrap -build -doc -sqlite -ucs2 -wininst" No ucs2 same as my previous python installation. It could be from the compiled python tho...
Technically, this isn't a bug, right? It sounds like a reinstall is the cleanest solution since this isn't a critical system (user is wisely learning the ropes on a test machine...) Please don't be put off by getting your bug closed claudiu. I recommend http://forums.gentoo.org as a good starting point for help if you ever get in a similar situation, and feel free to open more bugzilla reports if you find unreported bugs in the software.
(In reply to comment #3) > Thank you for replays, this machine is just for testing, even if i am using it > daily as my desktop :) I had a similar problem with the installation of openoffice (and some libraries for other packages) and got the same error. It turned out that the configure script found a misplaced installation of python in /usr/local. This installation survived to several emerging of (the correctly placed) python and passed unobserved while emerging several other packages. What did the trick: 1. removing all python stuff in /usr/local 2. remerging python 3. emerging the failing package.
