Hi all, after upgrading to portage-2.0.51 and adding "candy" to FEATURES var I get the following error: [ 15:31 itchy kde ] emerge --info Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 70, in ? spinner = spinner_msgs[int(time.time()*100)%len(spinner_msgs)] OverflowError: float too large to convert After removing "candy", this is my output: [ 15:32 itchy kde ] emerge --info Portage 2.0.51 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.3.4, glibc-2.3.3.20040420-r1, 2.4.26_pre6-gentoo i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.26_pre6-gentoo i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2100+ Unknown Host Operating System Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r3 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.3 Binutils: sys-devel/binutils-2.14.90.0.8-r1 Headers: sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.4.21-r1 Libtools: sys-devel/libtool-1.4.1-r10 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" ACCEPT_LICENSE="" ANT_HOME="/usr/share/ant-core" ARCH="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" BASH_ENV="/etc/spork/is/not/valid/profile.env" CC="gcc" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -pipe -w" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CLASSPATH="/opt/blackdown-jdk-1.4.1/jre/lib/rt.jar:.:/usr/share/junit/lib/junit.jar:/usr/share/log4j/lib/log4j-1.2.8.jar:/usr/share/systray4j/lib/systray4j.jar:/usr/share/junit/lib/junit.jar:/usr/share/log4j/lib/log4j-1.2.8.jar:/usr/share/systray4j/lib/systray4j.jar:/usr/share/junit/lib/junit.jar:/usr/share/log4j/lib/log4j-1.2.8.jar:/usr/share/systray4j/lib/systray4j.jar:."

Your python or glibc is broken, I imagine, >>> import time >>> int(time.time()*100) 109836631708L >>> int(time.time()*1000) 1098366319139L >>> int(time.time()*10000) 10983663207550L >>> int(time.time()*100000) 109836632230545L >>> int(time.time()*1000000) 1098366323999545L >>> int(time.time()*10000000) 10983663255218870L >>> int(time.time()*1000000000000000) 1098366328167949972537344L >>> int(time.time()*10000000000000000000000) 10983663305119491060918141321216L >>> int(time.time()*100000000000000000000000000000000) 109836633407792809837744422184613733990400L
so what should I do? update glibc and/or python?
Yes. 'and'
this bug seems to affect machines with python 2.2.x.
indeed, after upgrading to python-2.3.4 I do not get this error anymore. thx alot!
