Description Manuel Rüger (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-01-20 00:23:23 UTC 
It works with portage-2.1.11.43, so it seems to be a regression in 2.1.11.44

repoman

*** the local copy of metadata.dtd needs to be refetched, doing that now

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/repoman", line 1169, in <module>
    if not fetch_metadata_dtd():
  File "/usr/bin/repoman", line 1124, in fetch_metadata_dtd
    last_modified = parsedate(last_modified)
  File "/usr/bin/repoman", line 1087, in parsedate
    m = str(m).rjust(2, '0')
TypeError: must be char, not unicode

[01:28] <irker825> gentoo-x86: zmedico sys-apps/portage: 2.1.11.45 version bump. This fixes a repoman bug which cause it handle 

I hope this will fix it, otherwise I'll reopen.
