Haven't seen this one anywhere, seems like someone else should have this problem. So if this is just me please let me know... >>> Unpacking kdebase-3.3.92.tar.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/kdebase-3.4.0_beta2/work /usr/portage/eclass/base.eclass: line 37: cd: /var/tmp/portage/kdebase-3.4.0_beta2/work/kdebase-3.4.0_beta2: No such file or directory /usr/portage/eclass/kde.eclass: line 42: cd: /var/tmp/portage/kdebase-3.4.0_beta2/work/kdebase-3.4.0_beta2: No such file or directory * Applying startkde-gentoo.diff ... ...and of course the diff fails. The correct path is /var/tmp/portage/kdebase-3.4.0_beta2/work/kdebase-3.3.92 I have written a few embarrassingly simple ebuilds for my own use, however I have always specified the full path before patching or compiling if the version name of the ebuild is different than the version name of the tarball. So I can only assume that this is supposed to be automagic. Well, it aint in this case. Guess it's time to read up a little more :) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~X86" emerge kdebase 2.wait ten seconds.. 3.

FIXED: the problem was that I had the kde-dist.eclass definition in /usr/local/portage/eclass from an earlier try with the cvs build. For some reason emerge was defaulting to the /usr/local/portage/eclass even though it was from an older ebuild.. I just commented out PORDIR_OVERLAY in /etc/make.conf and it's working fine..
