I'm getting a very ugly error when tring to do something with portage. I got this on 2 computers, an ~x86 and a x86 system, who have their tree shared via NFS (tree is on the x86 computer). After an emerge sync, I keep getting these errors: /usr/portage/eclass/eutils.eclass: line 39: syntax error near unexpected token `else' /usr/portage/eclass/eutils.eclass: line 39: ` else' See attached file for all errors Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge sync 2. emerge -uDv world (-p) ~x86: Portage 2.0.51-r15 (default-linux/x86/2004.3, gcc-3.4.3, glibc-2.3.4.20041102-r0 , 2.6.10-nitro2 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.10-nitro2 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2500+ Gentoo Base System version 1.6.9 Python: dev-lang/python-2.3.4 [2.3.4 (#1, Nov 24 2004, 18:21:57)] distcc 2.18.3 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disable d] dev-lang/python: 2.3.4 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.6.3, 1.9.4, 1.5 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r2 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.10-r4 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.8.1-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -mmmx -msse -m3dnow -mfp math=sse,387 -ffast-math" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/env /usr/kde/3.3/share /config /usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/lib/ fax /usr/share/config /var/qmail/alias /var/qmail/control /var/spool/fax/etc" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -mmmx -msse -m3dnow -m fpmath=sse,387 -ffast-math" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache distlocks parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/gentoo/ ftp://gd.tu wien.ac.at/opsys/linux/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.snt.utwente.nl/pub/os/linux/gentoo" LANG="nl_NL@euro" LC_ALL="nl_NL@euro" MAKEOPTS="-j5" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 3dnow X aalib alsa apache2 apm arts audiofile avi bash-completion bitma p-fonts bzlib calender cdparanoia cdr chroot crypt cups dba divx4linux dvd dvdr dvdread encode esd f77 fam filepro flac font-server foomaticdb fortran gd gdbm g if gnome gphoto2 gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 guile hal imagemagick imlib insecure-dri vers java jpeg jpeg2k junit kde ldap libg++ libwww live mad mikmod mime mmx moti f mpeg msn mysql ncurses network nls nptl nvidia odbc offensive oggvorbis ooo-kd e opengl pam pdflib perl php pic png postgres python qmail qt quicktime readline real rplay samba scanner sdk sdl session sftplogging slang softmmu speex spell sse ssl stroke svga tcltk tcpd threads tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts usb userlocales v4l wmf xine xinerama xml xml2 xmms xprint xscreensaver xv xvid zlib video_cards_nvidia linguas_nl" Unset: ASFLAGS, CBUILD, CTARGET, LDFLAGS x86: Portage 2.0.51-r15 (default-linux/x86/2004.3, gcc-3.4.3, glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r1, 2.4.28-gentoo-r5 i586) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.28-gentoo-r5 i586 Pentium MMX Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16 Python: dev-lang/python-2.3.4 [2.3.4 (#1, Jan 17 2005, 15:22:08)] distcc 2.16 i586-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.3.4 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.59-r6, 2.13 sys-devel/automake: 1.7.9-r1, 1.9.4, 1.8.5-r3, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.4_p6 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.10-r4 virtual/os-headers: 2.4.21-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-march=pentium-mmx -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -mmmx -mfpmath=387 -ffast-math" CHOST="i586-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /var/qmail/alias /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=pentium-mmx -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -mmmx -mfpmath=387 -ffast-math" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddconfig autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache distcc distlocks sandbox sfperms" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/gentoo/ ftp://gd.tuwien.ac.at/opsys/linux/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.snt.utwente.nl/pub/os/linux/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j5" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 apache2 apm arts avi bitmap-fonts crypt cups curl dba encode extensions f77 font-server foomaticdb fortran ftp gd gdbm gif gpm gtk2 imap imlib javascript jpeg kde ldap libg++ libwww mad mikmod mime motif mpeg mysql ncurses oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl php png postgres python quicktime quotas readline samba sdl session softquota spell ssl svga tcpd tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts winbind xml xml2 xmms xv zlib" Unset: ASFLAGS, CBUILD, CTARGET, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS

here's line the function that causes this: ecpu_check() { if [ $CROSSCOMPILE -eq 1 ] || [ ! -e /proc/cpuinfo ] then else CPU_FLAGS=$1 USER_CPU=`grep "flags" /proc/cpuinfo` for flags in `seq 1 ${#CPU_FLAGS[@]}` do if has ${CPU_FLAGS[$flags - 1]} $USER_CPU && ! has ${CPU_FLAGS[$flags - 1]} $USE then ewarn "Your system is ${CPU_FLAGS[$flags - 1]} capable but you don't have it enabled!" ewarn "You might be cross compiling (in this case set CROSSCOMPILE to 1 to disable this warning." fi .... changing this to: if [ $CROSSCOMPILE -eq 1 ] || [ ! -e /proc/cpuinfo ] then ewarn "Nothing to see here" else CPU_FLAGS=$1 seems to fix it.
