Description James Cloos 2004-04-25 15:30:57 UTC

upgraded from probably 51_pre2 to 51_pre4

/var/cache/edb/world now points to ../../../etc/portage/sets/world but the old contents of /var/cache/edb/world were not copied over to /etc/portage/sets/world;
in fact that file was not created at all until the next emerge added a package.

/usr/lib/portage/bin/regenworld
Make sure you're running the latest version.
