fix
Not really sure why this happens on your system. The function reads the directory and passes the current work-path do the inner loop that should exist at the time of execution. (Yep.. there might be a problem when a second task deletes directories in the directory the program currently walks thru.. that should be fixed - no doubt.) Could you please elaborate? I fail to see why this happens on your system. As you wrote a patch that fixes the problem for you I guess at least you do. :) Thanks in advance!

But /usr/portage/package doesn't allow read access to normal user. So that's why it fails in my case. >(Yep.. there might be a problem when a second task > deletes directories in the directory the program currently walks thru.. that > should be fixed - no doubt.) That's another possible error that may arise. > Could you please elaborate? I fail to see why this happens on your system.

A partial fix for this problem has been implemented in yet-to-hit portage 0.2.12. Its not perfect, but its a better solution for "now" than "just bail out for no good reason". I know there's probably still some objections, because $categories should still do *something* if they can't be traversed, however, thats not the dominant case, and will implement something better when the code is in better shape.
