Portage fail to emerge regen for me.

    raise KeyError, "Specific key requires an operator (%s) (try adding an '=')" % (mydep)
KeyError: "Specific key requires an operator (app-doc/ebook-gtk-2.0) (try adding an '=')"



I tried to grep for ebook-gtk-2.0 in /usr/portage /var/cache and /var/db but I saw nothing really intersing about that.

Appears to be reproducable for me when doing a "cvs up" (which temporarily creates directories that have been moved to the attic). Once the update is complete I
can regen just fine.
Comment 3 Guy Martin (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-02-16 03:25:36 UTC 
I emerged sync and I was hopefully able to update to portage 2.0.50-r1.

emerge regen worked and after some fix-db, reemerge regen and emerge metadata (I was not sure what I had to do so I did everything :) it reworked.

Now I'm trying to cvs co gentoo-x86 but that should work.
Comment 4 Guy Martin (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-08-11 04:20:41 UTC 
This never happened again with new portages. I close it.
