Description Sergey 'L29Ah' Alirzaev 2021-06-07 07:49:30 UTC 
Today eix-update (0.35.0) started to crash while writing its database with this message. Subsequent calls to eix result in "error while reading from database: end of file".

there is already a github upstream issue

See https://github.com/vaeth/eix/issues/87#issuecomment-856123869 although I don't think ::guru is using EAPI 8?
Comment 3 Marcin Deranek 2021-06-07 18:36:34 UTC 
eix 0.35.1 does fix the proble for me.
