Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2009-08-04 07:49:45 UTC 
After upgrade to 2.2_rc35, if world_sets file contains '@mg_depends_μADHD', emerge fails to emerge @world with following error message:

  emerge: the given set 'world' contains a non-existent set named ''.

Commenting out the set makes emerge work once again. I would like to notice that when that name is provided on command line, emerge finds and expands it correctly.
