wtf is Portage 2.0.49-r13-2 ? :)
Oooops, interesting. $ epm -qa | grep portage portage-2.0.49-r13 $ emerge --info Portage 2.0.49-r13-2 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.3, glibc-2.3.2-r1, 2.4.19) $ emerge --version Portage 2.0.49-r13-2 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.3, glibc-2.3.2-r1, 2.4.19) I found in /usr/bin/emerge VERSION_RELEASE=2
Looks like a broken install, which python version do you have ? See bug 31198 about the -r13-2 thing.
python-2.2.3-r1 I just remerged the actual portage portage-2.0.49-r13 (-2), and now - everything works fine. Wow, but I do not know, why.
seems to be fixed.
