It appears that a deprecated getchildren attribute use the code was never used and subsequently never fixed like it had been in gentoolkit's original metadata.py code. This patches portage's xml/metatda.py which gentoolkit is now using.

Created attachment 791174 [details] emerge --info sys-apps/portage Hi devs, Sorry if this is the wrong place to report my problem. I experienced this bug yesterday (July 11). I synced with main tree and upgraded the @world set this morning (July 12). I did see gentoolkit bumped to a new version: $ eix gentoolkit [I] app-portage/gentoolkit Available versions: 0.5.0-r3^t 0.5.1-r1^t (~)0.6.1-r2^t **9999*l^t {test PYTHON_TARGETS="pypy3 python3_8 python3_9 python3_10 python3_11"} Installed versions: 0.6.1-r2^t(12:39:30 PM 07/12/2022)(-test PYTHON_TARGETS="python3_10 python3_11 -pypy3 -python3_8 -python3_9") Homepage: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Portage-Tools Description: Collection of administration scripts for Gentoo However, the bug remains on my machine if I run: $ equery u portage Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.10/equery", line 44, in <module> equery.main(sys.argv) File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/gentoolkit/equery/__init__.py", line 359, in main loaded_module.main(module_args) File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/gentoolkit/equery/uses.py", line 341, in main output = get_output_descriptions(pkg, global_usedesc) File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/gentoolkit/equery/uses.py", line 201, in get_output_descriptions local_usedesc = pkg.metadata.use() File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/portage/xml/metadata.py", line 337, in use self._useflags = tuple(_Useflag(node) for node in iterate("flag")) File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/portage/xml/metadata.py", line 337, in <genexpr> self._useflags = tuple(_Useflag(node) for node in iterate("flag")) File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/portage/xml/metadata.py", line 109, in __init__ for child in node.getchildren(): AttributeError: 'xml.etree.ElementTree.Element' object has no attribute 'getchildren' I looked at the commit(s) that fixed the bug and found the changed lines belong to portage's metadata.py.

I think your issue is you have a package.accept_keywords entry for gentoolkit but not Portage - which is fine, by itself, but the new gentoolkit lacked a dependency on the newer Portage which fixed this bug. I've now fixed the dep. You can either drop gentoolkit from package.accept_keywords or add Portage there temporarily.

Hi Sam, Thank you very much for the information.

Ah, I'm guessing you have repoman installed, which leads to the new Portage not being upgraded to?
(In reply to Sam James from comment #11) > Ah, I'm guessing you have repoman installed, which leads to the new Portage > not being upgraded to? Ah Yes. I didn't expect this has something to do with repoman. What should be my next step with repoman or portage? $ equery d portage # I trimmed some irrelevant lines * These packages depend on portage: ..... app-portage/gentoolkit-0.6.1-r2 (sys-apps/portage[python_targets_pypy3(-)?,python_targets_python3_8(-)?,python_targets_python3_9(-)?,python_targets_python3_10(-)?,python_targets_python3_11(-)?]) (test ? sys-apps/portage[python_targets_pypy3(-)?,python_targets_python3_8(-)?,python_targets_python3_9(-)?,python_targets_python3_10(-)?,python_targets_python3_11(-)?]) app-portage/repoman-3.0.3-r2 (>=sys-apps/portage-3.0.18[python_targets_pypy3(-)?,python_targets_python3_8(-)?,python_targets_python3_9(-)?,python_targets_python3_10(-)?]) The ">=sys-apps/portage-3.0.18" made me believe there is no problem. Should I uninstall repoman? I once used it to check ebuild quality for some overlays. Not really being using it these days.

Don't rely on equery d, use 'emerge -pvc portage' or similar and you'd see repoman is depending on it (at an older version).
To remove repoman safely, use emerge --deselect app-portage/repoman. If you end up needing an alternative in future, use pkgcheck/pkgdev.

Hi Sam, Thank you so much for the information and tips. Yes, I took on your advice and indeed, there it is! I uninstalled repoman (the safe way), and portage now can be upgraded to 3.0.32 smoothly. `equery u portage` works as expected too. Will surely switch to pkgcheck/pkgdev. Thank you again for your time and help. :) Best wishes
