Description Paul Taylor 2004-01-22 11:51:57 UTC

I tried running the fix-db.py script, but it generated a bunch of 
"Invalid file" errors e.g. 
   Invalid file: '/var/db/pkgsys-kernel'

The file path was obviously incorrect, so I fixed this by changing the 
following line in the script: 
   catdir = vardbdir+cat+"/"
to:
   catdir = vardbdir+"/"+cat+"/"

No errors were generated after making the change, so I assume it fixed the
database...

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Run /usr/lib/portage/bin/fix-db.py
Actual Results:  
Invalid file: '/var/db/pkgsys-kernel'
Invalid file: '/var/db/pkgsys-devel'
Invalid file: '/var/db/pkgsys-apps'

(etc.)

Expected Results:  
No error messages.
