This only happens since the recent DateManip-5.42a-r1 update; the safe-taint-check patch is bad. I'll attach the patch failure log. A short-term fix is to edit the DateManip ebuild and comment out the epatch. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Update DateManip to 5.42a-r1 Actual Results: Here's the console: Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) dev-perl/DateManip-5.42a-r1 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) DateManip-5.42a.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking DateManip-5.42a.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/DateManip-5.42a-r1/work * Applying safe-taint-check.patch... * Failed Patch: safe-taint-check.patch! * * Include in your bugreport the contents of: * * /var/tmp/portage/DateManip-5.42a-r1/temp/safe-taint-check.patch-27232.out !!!

Sorry for the duplicate attachment. Bugzilla seems to be having a lot of problems lately. The "search for bug" function fails more often than it succeeds, complaining that I don't have Javascript enabled (I do). Trying to attach a file resulted in this message: Status: 400 Bad request (malformed multipart POST) Content-type: text/html Software error: Undefined subroutine &main::ThrowCodeError called at Bugzilla/CGI.pm line 78. For help, please send mail to the webmaster (webmaster@gentoo.org), giving this error message and the time and date of the error. Content-type: text/html Software error: [Thu Sep 11 04:39:56 2003] processmail: Undefined subroutine &main::ThrowCodeError called at Bugzilla/CGI.pm line 78.

I can't reproduce this and haven't heard from anybody else who can. Can you add the Manip.pm.rej file if you can still reproduce this problem?
unreproducable for now.
