There's nothing wrong with the directory. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 170030 *** If this is normal behavior, please don't mark it as a dupe, either INVAL it or move it into the emerge docs bucket. I'll let you decide, but it's not the same as the other bug. If you can't live with duplicate, you'll get INVALID.
> --- Invalid atom in /etc/portage/package.mask:

is clearly a duplicate of the other bug.
No, it is NOT a duplicate. Bug 170030 has to do with data that is added to the package.mask. If emerge works just fine with having a directory named /etc/portage/package.mask/ that contains files with the mask information, then this report IS invalid and should be marked as such. Please be accurate. In your defense, I also don't go through 100 bug reports a day. And again, this information should be added to the emerge man/info pages. oops, double invalid. This behavior is documented in the portage manpage, my bad. |
