Bug 178197 – python 2.4.4 libinstall error on updating system

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE

[Description Klaas Decanniere 2007-05-12 13:50:07 UTC]

Upgrading to  python 2.4.4 (from 2.4.3-r4) ends with an error, but no obvious clues as to what is wrong.
I tried 2.4.4-r4 which ends in the same way:

Compiling /var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.4.4-r4/image//usr/lib/python2.4/zipfile.py ...
make: *** [libinstall] Error 1

!!! ERROR: dev-lang/python-2.4.4-r4 failed.
Call stack:
  ebuild.sh, line 1614:   Called dyn_install
  ebuild.sh, line 1060:   Called qa_call 'src_install'
  environment, line 4188:   Called src_install
  python-2.4.4-r4.ebuild, line 175:   Called die

!!! (no error message)
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant.
!!! A complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.4.4-r4/temp/build.log'.

I updated to the 2007.0 profile today and was doing an emerge --update system

I still had python-2.3.5-r3 on the system, so I unmerged that just in case. No luck.
Disks aren't full.

During the system update, the nano package had an issue with UTF-8, but that was solved by re-emrging ncurses. 

As the last line before the error involves zipfile.py, I re-emerged
bzip2 gzip unzip zip Archive-zip
No joy.
