Pretty easily fixed by changeing return unmerge(mysettings["CATEGORY"],mysettings["PF"],myroot) into return unmerge(mysettings["CATEGORY"],mysettings["PF"],myroot,mysettings) I wonder about passing in the settings dict, then 2 specific values taken from settings; emerge's call to unmerge (@ line 1746) is the only instance I'm aware of where category/pf isn't stored in settings. Either way, easy fix.
more unmerge of package failures .. now I've figured out how to blitz /var/db/pkg/sys-kernel/mm-sources-2.6.1-r1 manually but this should work. looks like a real live bug .. by the way I'm also noticing that some packages get unmerged several times after being upgraded .. some of them are trying to be cleaned out for the third or fourth time .. seems their directories in /var/db/pkg are not getting deleted .. manually killing the directory seems to fix the problem but portage should do this automagicly. the results of several tries ... emerge unmerge mm-sources-2.6.1-r1 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 2194, in ? if 1==unmerge(myaction, myfiles): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1651, in unmerge mymatch=localtree.dep_match(x) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 3946, in dep_match mymatch=self.dbapi.match(mydep) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 3865, in match mymatch=match_from_list(mydep,self.cp_list(mykey)) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 3258, in match_from_list raise KeyError, "Specific key requires an operator (%s)" % (mydep) KeyError: 'Specific key requires an operator (sys-kernel/mm-sources-2.6.1-r1)' emerge unmerge mm-sources-2.6.1-r1.ebuild !!!

Oh I for got to add .. /var/db/pkg/sys-kernel/mm-sources-2.6.1-r1 did exist .. Is this perhaps a hidden permission problem? Portage (emerge ) isn't dropping permissions during this is it? It is running as root but why can it not find the files when they do exist? Derk
I think this bug is more major than normal as if it's not fixed or manually dealt with your /var/db/pkg data base will be full of crap very quickly plus you are not able to cleanly remove applications.. for example: I'm running short of disk space .. I want to clean out kde-3.1.4 or kde-3.1.5 and leave the kde-3.2 beta alone .. it does not work at the moment .. emerge unmerge -p kde-3.1.4 (or 3.1.5) >>> These are the packages that I would unmerge: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 2194, in ? if 1==unmerge(myaction, myfiles): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1651, in unmerge mymatch=localtree.dep_match(x) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 3946, in dep_match mymatch=self.dbapi.match(mydep) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 3865, in match mymatch=match_from_list(mydep,self.cp_list(mykey)) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 3258, in match_from_list raise KeyError, "Specific key requires an operator (%s)" % (mydep) KeyError: 'Specific key requires an operator (kde-base/kde-3.1.4)' this is just a simple example (which really does not remove all of kde ) maybe this is why some apps are not being cleaned as well?
I just commited Brian's fix and fixed "emerge foo-1.2 unmerge" problem in cvs.
KeyError: 'Specific key requires an operator (kde-base/kde-3.1.4)' IS NOT RELATED TO THIS BUG =kde-base/kde-3.1.4
supposed to be fixed in 2.0.50 which is stable now. If this bug is not fixed please reopen.
