Description Andy 2003-05-13 23:40:55 UTC
I got the following error after having emerged the
openoffice-bin-1.1_beta.ebuild.  [That fails on setup
because some files are missing (icons), so I tried to
fetch the source distribution to find the missing
files.] Then the following happened, which I don't think
is good:


emerge --fetchonly openoffice
Calculating dependencies ...done!
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1862, in ?
    mydepgraph.merge(mydepgraph.altlist())

    return self.root+"/"+mysplit[0]+"/"+psplit[0]+"/"+mysplit[1]+".ebuild"
TypeError: unsubscriptable object

I've sync'ed recently.
