Description Chris Richards 2007-07-14 22:51:43 UTC

Same symptoms as bug 177424.  To make matters worse, the only ebuild that works, 0.8_rc1-r2, has been removed from Portage.  If any poor sucker gets nailed by this bug, he's not going to be able to back down to something that stands a chance of working.

If 177424 is still an active bug, then please feel free to mark this as duplicate, and I'll make entries there.
