Description Haroon Rafique 2003-09-15 13:59:19 UTC
I keep getting the following:

root # emerge -Up world


Performing Global Updates: /usr/portage/profiles/updates/3Q-2003
(Could take a couple minutes if you have a lot of binary packages.)
  .='update pass'  *='binary update'  @='/var/db move'

..portage: Update command "move sys-apps dd_rescue sys-fs/dd-rescue" invalid;
skipping.

 ** Skipping packages. Run 'fixpackages' or set it in FEATURES to fix the
    tbz2's in the packages directory. Note: This can take a very long time.
>>> --upgradeonly implies --update... adding --update to options.

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies ...done!


My fix was to edit /usr/portage/profiles/updates/3Q-2003 and add the missing slash:

move sys-apps/dd_rescue sys-fs/dd-rescue
which used to be:
move sys-apps dd_rescue sys-fs/dd-rescue

Once I fixed the file, subsequent emerge -up world did not display the .....
lines any longer and no errors were reported either.
