I entered: emerge --ask depclean, answered 'no', after that I got the following Traceback. Do you want me to unmerge these packages? [Yes/No] no Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 2469, in ? unmerge("unmerge", cleanlist) File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1833, in unmerge __main__.myopts+=["--pretend"] NameError: global name '__main__' is not defined Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge --ask depclean 2.answer no 3. Actual Results: It spitted out a traceback Expected Results: Said nothing ;-)
Not reproducible here, can you add the emerge info output to this bug please (Danny, Jason, can we bounce this to portage maintainers?)
Meanwhile it isn't reproducable by me anymore. Probably after I did the transition from amd64 to ~amd64. It works now.
This happened to me too. I tried it again and it happened again. The complete shell output follows: root>emerge --ask --verbose depclean *** WARNING *** : DEPCLEAN CAN SERIOUSLY IMPAIR YOUR SYSTEM .
