Description Derk W te Bokkel 2006-11-02 19:32:31 UTC

Emerge fails to work complains about a bad magic number in emergehelp.pyo

 sorry I lost the error that came up while I fixed it by rolling back using "ebuild  portage-2.1.2_rc1-r2 merge"

Maybe you just needed to remove /usr/lib/portage/pym/emergehelp.pyo for some reason.  The *.pyo files are automatically regenerated by python anyway.
