Hi, all. I'm seeing the following error messages: ===================================================== root@llama jim # emerge --pretend --update world These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies ...done!

Hardware is a server with a dual Xeon Intel mobo with built in 1G/100M/10M NIC and Adaptec (Promise) SCSI controller. Two 36 GB SCA SCSI drives. Currently running 2.4.22 kernel.
please `emerge sync` and try again looks like the ebuild is incomplete (edit the file and see if it looks like it ends prematurely)
As requested, I just tried another 'emerge sync' then 'emerge --update world'. I got the following results: root@llama jim # emerge sync >>> starting rsync with rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage... >>> checking server timestamp ...

could you post /usr/portage/media-gfx/bootsplash/bootsplash-0.6-r3.ebuild as an attachment please ? perhaps even delete it and `emerge sync` again ...
Deleting the ebuild then 'emerge sync'ing again took care of the problem. It completed successfully. Thanks.
yeah, i had that happen to me on a box earlier today :x dunno if theres much we can do about it ...
