I get the following crash while running portpeek, with the latest v2.1.27 and also a few earlier versions: $ portpeek --all ... package.use: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.6/portpeek", line 1585, in <module> get_recursive_info(USER_CONFIG_PATH + "/package.use") File "/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.6/portpeek", line 434, in get_recursive_info get_info(filename) File "/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.6/portpeek", line 469, in get_info diffs_found = parse_package_use(line,filename) File "/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.6/portpeek", line 628, in parse_package_use check_useflags_all_versions(pkgs, line, check_pkg) File "/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.6/portpeek", line 1072, in check_useflags_all_versions if item[0] in atom: IndexError: string index out of range The good news is, I've tracked it down to the following entry in my package.use: media-fonts/font-bh-lucidatypewriter-100dpi X Commenting that line makes everything work. Running with --debug shows that we get an empty iuse item thanks to an empty iuse_string, which is returned by package.use() on line 1048 in my installed copy of portpeek.
Hmm. I can't reproduce with media-fonts/font-bh-lucidatypewriter-100dpi installed or not installed. But I am using python 3.7. Just to check, is media-fonts/font-bh-lucidatypewriter-100dpi installed ?
It was installed, but on a hunch I reinstalled it. And now, everything is fine. Obviously not portpeek's fault... sorry for the noise =)
