Description Scott Taylor (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-10-18 14:55:21 UTC
Got this error while upgrading two machines here. Workaround of emerge unmerge cups ; emerge foomatic ; emerge cups  -- will get things to install without complaint, but surely there's a better fix...

>>> Install foomatic-db-20031018 into /var/tmp/portage/foomatic-db-20031018/image/ category net-print
install -d /var/tmp/portage/foomatic-db-20031018/image//usr/share/foomatic
tar cf - --exclude=CVS db | ( cd /var/tmp/portage/foomatic-db-20031018/image//usr/share/foomatic && tar xf -)
