When I try to do an emerge -e world, it restarts the process after it has emerged portage. This creates an infinite loop. Before my first attempt I emerged portage seperately to the latest version (portage-2.0.49-r21). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -e world 2. watch output Actual Results: Log excerpt: 1073476770: >>> emerge (25 of 280) sys-apps/debianutils-1.16.7-r4 to / 1073476770: === (25 of 280) Cleaning (sys-apps/debianutils-1.16.7-r4::/usr/portage/sys-apps/debianutils/debianutils-1.16.7-r4.ebuild) 1073476770: === (25 of 280) Compiling/Merging (sys-apps/debianutils-1.16.7-r4::/usr/portage/sys-apps/debianutils/debianutils-1.16.7-r4.ebuild) 1073476782: === (25 of 280) Post-Build Cleaning (sys-apps/debianutils-1.16.7-r4::/usr/portage/sys-apps/debianutils/debianutils-1.16.7-r4.ebuild) 1073476783: >>> AUTOCLEAN: sys-apps/debianutils 1073476783: --- AUTOCLEAN: Nothing unmerged. 1073476783: ::: completed emerge (25 of 280) sys-apps/debianutils-1.16.7-r4 to / 1073476783: >>> emerge (26 of 280) sys-apps/portage-2.0.49-r21 to / 1073476783: === (26 of 280) Cleaning (sys-apps/portage-2.0.49-r21::/usr/portage/sys-apps/portage/portage-2.0.49-r21.ebuild) 1073476784: === (26 of 280) Compiling/Merging (sys-apps/portage-2.0.49-r21::/usr/portage/sys-apps/portage/portage-2.0.49-r21.ebuild) 1073476836: === (26 of 280) Post-Build Cleaning (sys-apps/portage-2.0.49-r21::/usr/portage/sys-apps/portage/portage-2.0.49-r21.ebuild) 1073476837: >>> AUTOCLEAN: sys-apps/portage 1073476837: --- AUTOCLEAN: Nothing unmerged. 1073476837: *** RESTARTING emerge via exec() after change of portage version. 1073476838: Started emerge on: Jan 07, 2004 12:00:38 1073476838: *** emerge --emptytree world 1073476844: >>> emerge (1 of 280) sys-devel/gnuconfig-20030708 to / 1073476844: === (1 of 280) Cleaning (sys-devel/gnuconfig-20030708::/usr/portage/sys-devel/gnuconfig/gnuconfig-20030708.ebuild) 1073476845: === (1 of 280) Compiling/Merging (sys-devel/gnuconfig-20030708::/usr/portage/sys-devel/gnuconfig/gnuconfig-20030708.ebuild) 1073476854: === (1 of 280) Post-Build Cleaning (sys-devel/gnuconfig-20030708::/usr/portage/sys-devel/gnuconfig/gnuconfig-20030708.ebuild) 1073476855: >>> AUTOCLEAN: sys-devel/gnuconfig 1073476855: --- AUTOCLEAN: Nothing unmerged. 1073476855: ::: completed emerge (1 of 280) sys-devel/gnuconfig-20030708 to / 1073476855: >>> emerge (2 of 280) sys-devel/patch-2.5.9 to / Expected Results: Continued to rebuild world emerge info...

Nick, didn't you say it's fixed in -r20 ?
*** Bug 37712 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Old bug #33882 rears its head again? I am seeing this behavior with portage-2.0.49-r21 as well
should be fixed now.
Problem is not fixed for me. I am waiting at my monitor to hit ctrl c and then emerge --resume --skipfirst
`emerge portage` and `emerge -V`, if it doesn't show -r21 as version please re-open this bug.
