Description Stephen Leaf 2003-11-12 23:29:25 UTC
it doesn't matter if I run it as a user or root same error every time.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run the command: ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -pUu world
2. Wait for Error
3. See Error

Actual Results:  
# ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -pUu world

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[ebuild     U ] sys-devel/libtool-1.4.3-r2 [1.4.3-r1]
[ebuild     U ] sys-libs/ncurses-5.3-r4 [5.3-r2]
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 2133, in ?
    mydepgraph.display(mydepgraph.altlist())
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1103, in display
    elif (not "--emptytree" in myopts) and
portage.db[x[1]]["vartree"].exists_specific_cat(x[2]):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 3469, in
exists_specific_cat
    self.invalidentry(self.root+"var/db/pkg/"+a[0]+"/"+x)
AttributeError: vartree instance has no attribute 'invalidentry'

Expected Results:  
a non crash.. a list of packages to upgrade.
