If I name an ebuild gtkwave-2.0.0-pre4.ebuild instead of gtkwave-2.0.0_pre4.ebuild I get a monstrous error/traceback which is totall unhelpful. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Rename gtkwave-2.0.0_pre4.ebuild to gtkwave-2.0.0-pre4.ebuild 2. Run emerge -up world 3. Scratch your head. And wonder what part of your overlay directory caused the problem. Actual Results: root@sidicpc22 gtkwave # emerge -up world These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies |Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 2103, in ? if not mydepgraph.xcreate(myaction): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1034, in xcreate if not self.create(myk): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 747, in create if not self.select_dep("/",mydep["/"],myparent=mp,myuse=myuse): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 869, in select_dep myeb=portage.portdb.xmatch("bestmatch-visible",x) File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 4050, in xmatch myval=best(self.xmatch("match-visible",None,mydep,mykey)) File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 4061, in xmatch myval=self.match2(mydep,mykey,self.xmatch("list-visible",None,mydep,mykey)) File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 4047, in xmatch myval=self.gvisible(self.visible(self.cp_list(mykey))) File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 4130, in gvisible myaux=db["/"]["porttree"].dbapi.aux_get(mycpv, ["KEYWORDS"]) File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 3748, in aux_get myebuild,in_overlay=self.findname2(mycpv) ValueError: need more than 0 values to unpack Expected Results: The name of the ebuild: gtkwave-2.0.0-pre4.ebuild is incorrect you moron. Fix it.
Fixed in cvs.
