I noticed this myself a couple of days ago and fixed it in svn r5053. It only happens if the user running portage doesn't have write access to /var/db. This has been released in 2.1.2_rc2. Thanks. |
When running emerge --depclean --with-bdeps=n while another emerge is running, portage produces a traceback. This does not happen when I leave out the --with-bdeps=n I know that depcleaning while emerging something else is probably not a good idea, but portage should at least give a nice error message. $ emerge -vp --depclean --with-bdeps=n *** WARNING *** Depclean may break link level dependencies. Thus, it is *** WARNING *** recommended to use a tool such as `revdep-rebuild` (from *** WARNING *** app-portage/gentoolkit) in order to detect such breakage. *** WARNING *** *** WARNING *** Also study the list of packages to be cleaned for any obvious *** WARNING *** mistakes.
