Description Jonathan Hitchcock 2003-08-19 08:58:12 UTC
I just emerged the latest portage (2.0.49_pre18), and, on unmergeing the old
one, it did the following:

--- !targe sym /usr/bin/g-cpan.pl
--- !targe sym /usr/bin/emerge
>>> Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache...
Calculating world dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 12) dev-libs/libxml2-2.5.10 to /
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/portage/bin/emerge", line 2065, in ?
    mydepgraph.merge(mydepgraph.altlist())
  File "/usr/lib/portage/bin/emerge", line 1289, in merge
    retval=portage.doebuild(y,"merge",myroot,edebug)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 1735, in doebuild
    if not fetch(fetchme, listonly, fetchonly):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 1160, in fetch
    shuffle(thirdpartymirrors[mirrorname])
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/random.py", line 374, in shuffle
    x[i], x[j] = x[j], x[i]
IndexError: list index out of range

I tried to carry on anyway:

# emerge -uvD world
Calculating world dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 12) dev-libs/libxml2-2.5.10 to /
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 2065, in ?
    mydepgraph.merge(mydepgraph.altlist())
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1289, in merge
    retval=portage.doebuild(y,"merge",myroot,edebug)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 1735, in doebuild
    if not fetch(fetchme, listonly, fetchonly):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 1160, in fetch
    shuffle(thirdpartymirrors[mirrorname])
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/random.py", line 373, in shuffle
    j = int(random() * (i+1))
OverflowError: float too large to convert

Any repeated attempts give me the same error (at least it's consistent ;-)

This is not Happy (tm).  And it's going to be interesting trying to downgrade
back to the old working portage...

'emerge info' still works:

Um, the new portage works fine on my other machine.  (Which is handy, because it means I could --buildpkg on that machine, and --usepkgonly on the b0rked one, which worked.)

Comment 2 Nicholas Jones (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-08-19 11:40:38 UTC
You need to remerge glibc and python.
You're using a P4 with GCC's broken floating point.
P4's using SSE2 end up with invalid SSE2 code for floating point.
Comment 3 Jonathan Hitchcock 2003-08-19 11:52:24 UTC
This was pointed out to me, I've just finished remerging them, and I am suitably embarrassed.
Sorry, thanks!
