genernel 3.2.5 always exits on my system without doing any work. I tried many different combination of flags (and none at all); the result was always the same. e.g. -- # genkernel --debuglevel=5 --menuconfig --oldconfig all * CMD_DEBUGLEVEL: 5 * CMD_MENUCONFIG: 1 * CMD_CLEAN: 0 * CMD_OLDCONFIG: 1 * Gentoo Linux Genkernel; Version 3.2.5 * Running with options: --debuglevel=5 --menuconfig --oldconfig all [genkernel exits] -- Downgrading to 3.1.6 resolved the issue.

Can you run bash -x /usr/share/genkernel $arguments please?
also look to /var/log/genkernel.log for additional clues.
removal of make prepare called before a config is in place should fix this issue.
Do you still want the bash trace/etc. from me?
Please give genkernel-3.2.8 a go, if you are still experiencing issues then reopen this bug. Thanks!
I can confirm that 3.2.9 (3.2.8 didn't show up in the portage tree) is working. Thanks.
This was resolved quite a while ago. Time for full closure.
