I use "sys-apps/portage-2.0.50-r1" and emerge is crashing when I unmerge some old apps that were prelinked one day: >>> Unmerging net-irc/bitchx-1.0.19-r5... <<< obj /usr/share/man/man1/BitchX.1.gz <<< obj /usr/share/doc/bitchx-1.0.19-r5/watch.gz <<< obj /usr/share/doc/bitchx-1.0.19-r5/tcl-ideas.gz [snip] <<< obj /usr/lib/bx/help/4_Misc/set/banner.bz2 <<< obj /usr/lib/bx/help/4_Misc/set/auto_whowas.bz2 <<< obj /usr/lib/bx/help/4_Misc/set/auto_unmark_away.bz2 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 2366, in ? if 1==unmerge(myaction, myfiles): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1852, in unmerge retval=portage.unmerge(mysplit[0],mysplit[1],portage.root,mysettings,unmerge_action not in ["clean","prune"]) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 2496, in unmerge mylink.unmerge(trimworld=mytrimworld,cleanup=1) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 5309, in unmerge mymd5=perform_md5(obj, calc_prelink=1) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 2487, in perform_md5 return perform_checksum(x, calc_prelink)[0] File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 349, in perform_checksum retval = fchksum.fmd5t(prelink_tmpfile) IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/tmp/portage-prelink.tmp' Then I redo the unmerge and it finishes fine. [I think this is a backward compatibility issue, but you should know that better than me]
I got a similar error while updating jpilot - during the unmerge of the older package: <<< dir /usr/share/gnome/apps/Applications <<< dir /usr/doc/jpilot-0.99.5/icons <<< dir /usr/doc/jpilot-0.99.5 mydirs[5] /usr/share/doc/jpilot-0.99.5 obj /usr/share/doc/jpilot-0.99.5 objld None Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 2599, in ? mydepgraph.merge(mydepgraph.altlist()) File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1600, in merge retval=unmerge("clean", [xsplit[0]]) File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1852, in unmerge retval=portage.unmerge(mysplit[0],mysplit[1],portage.root,mysettings,unmerge_action not in ["clean","prune"]) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 2496, in unmerge mylink.unmerge(trimworld=mytrimworld,cleanup=1) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 5377, in unmerge if len(objld)>0: TypeError: len() of unsized object I tried manually cleaning jpilot (emerge -c jpilot), and it worked without error.

Re: Comment #1: I believe that this crash (in comment #1) is a duplicate of bug 25339. Note: I don't see how the bug in Comment #1 is "similar" to the first bug Camille is reporting here, so I'm _not_ saying Camille's bug is a duplicate of bug 25339.
bump. bug still here with portage-2.0.50-r9.
Anyone duplicate this on 2.0.51_pre*?
can duplicate w/ portage-2.0.51-r2 unmerging gcc-3.4.2-r2 (gcc-3.3.4-r1 still installed) if I rename the /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-pc-linux-uclibc/3.4.2 dir to something else, then it can be unmerged, so it seems some checksum fails in this dir (yes, it is an uclibc based system) before I rebuilt python, python-fcksum and portage (all from stable) w/ gcc-3.3.4-r1 to be sure that they are ok.
Can you post the traceback you get with portage-2.0.51-r2 please?
Can anyone duplicate on stable ( 2.0.51.22-r2 ). I doubt this was fixed, but who knows ;) A traceback would also be wonderful.
The traceback in comment #1 is supposed to be fixed since portage-2.0.51 (see bug 42228) and the traceback in comment #2 is supposed to be fixed since 2.0.51-r2 (see bug 25339).
Bug has been fixed and released in stable portages on or before 2.0.51-r2 ( the latest release of the two tracebacks ). Please re-open if you can reproduce on a stable version.
