Burkett) on 05/02/2009. (The selection of gentoo-amd64 was a based on the fact that bug 262647 was first reported on amd64 hardware. However, my difficulties are occuring on an x86 machine.) The discussion includes numerous insightful comments by Duncan. The discussion thread on gmane is at http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.amd64/14380. All help in resoling the problem will be much appreciated.

Your portage version is rather old, so don't you try the latest portage? The latest stable is currently 2.1.10.44: http://packages.gentoo.org/package/sys-apps/portage
i'm stuck with updating latex as well, the error is cryptic: >>> Install texlive-latexextra-2011-r2 into /var/tmp/portage/dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2011-r2/image/ category dev-texlive * Installing texmf-dist/scripts/perltex/perltex.pl as perltex bin wrapper * Installing texmf-dist/scripts/pst-pdf/ps4pdf as ps4pdf bin wrapper * ERROR: dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2011-r2 failed (install phase): * Trying to install a non existing or non executable symlink to /usr/bin: texmf-dist/scripts/pst-pdf/ps4pdf * * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 85: Called src_install * environment, line 2015: Called texlive-module_src_install * environment, line 2658: Called dobin_texmf_scripts 'texmf-dist/scripts/perltex/perltex.pl' 'texmf-dist/scripts/pst-pdf/ps4pdf' 'texmf-dist/scripts/splitindex/perl/splitindex.pl' 'texmf-dist/scripts/svn-multi/svn-multi.pl' 'texmf-dist/scripts/vpe/vpe.pl' 'texmf-dist/scripts/authorindex/authorindex' * environment, line 429: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * [ -x "${D}/usr/share/${1}" ] || die "Trying to install a non existing or non executable symlink to /usr/bin: ${1}"; * * If you need support, post the output of 'emerge --info =dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2011-r2', * the complete build log and the output of 'emerge -pqv =dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2011-r2'. * The complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2011-r2/temp/build.log'. * The ebuild environment file is located at '/var/tmp/portage/dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2011-r2/temp/environment'. * S: '/var/tmp/portage/dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2011-r2/work' ps4pdf is not in texmf-dist indeed. after while i found more probable cause, which is hidden error within unpacking various modules: ... >>> Unpacking texlive-module-zwgetfdate-2011.tar.xz to /var/tmp/portage/dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2011-r2/work >>> Unpacking texlive-module-zwpagelayout-2011.tar.xz to /var/tmp/portage/dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2011-r2/work >>> Unpacking texlive-module-collection-latexextra-2011.tar.xz to /var/tmp/portage/dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2011-r2/work /var/tmp/portage/dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2011-r2/temp/environment: line 2663: /bin/grep: Argument list too long Indeed, my kernel on this box is old&patched 2.6.19 and can't be reasonably updated due to hardware issues. checking arg_max gives: $ getconf ARG_MAX 131072 which is pretty standard for these old guys. Is there any workaround for this issue? Updating kernel is no option for this box...

running emerge in debug mode shows that error is in this part of code: + grep RELOC tlpkg/tlpobj/2up.tlpobj tlpkg/tlpobj/AkkTeX.tlpobj ..... (looong list)
OK, I fixed my problem by editing the critical line in texlive-module.eclass. Alexis (you are the maintainer, right?) please consider to rewrite: grep RELOC tlpkg/tlpobj/* | awk '{print $2}' | sed 's#^RELOC/##' > "${T}/reloclist" via xargs solution (i wanted fast solution and used: (cd tlpkg/tlpobj/; ls * | xargs -n 1 grep RELOC) |cut -f 2 -d ' '| sed 's#^RELOC/##' > "${T}/reloclist" but it can be rewritten via single find -uglyparams instead of cd,ls,cut, i think ;)
