strange, remove your PORTDIR_OVERLAY, do an emerge sync and try again, all files should be there doing emerge sync again fixed it. NO IDEA what the problem was. sorry for the trouble gah! its back. i did another emerge sync and now i get, again: smithj ~ # emerge -pvuD --newuse world These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies | emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy ">=x11-libs/motif-config-0.5". !!! Problem with ebuild x11-misc/xscreensaver-4.20 !!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem. !!! Depgraph creation failed. maybe i am doing something wrong? i just type emerge sync... ok, so yet another emerge sync fixed it again. it seems to be only doing this on odd-numbered syncs. WHAT IN THE WORLD?!? sorry, i can't really give any more information, because this totally unexplainable to me... still a problem sometimes? I HAVE NO IDEA! portage is just going crazy on me. maybe i accidentally messed something up, but i don't know what or how to fix it.
the title of this bug has been changed from "xscreensaver-4.20 ebuild is broken, possible problem with motif-config" to ""DEPEND/*DEPEND problem" after every few emerge syncs". maybe it should be reassigned? sorry for having to reopen again...

try to comment your PORTDIR_OVERLAY in make.conf oh, and i just tried again, same thing. once again, however, emerge sync temporarily cured the problem... it will, however, be back sorry, that post was slightly incoherent. what i meant to say: i tried (once again) to comment out the portage overlay, and it didn't work. however, when i sync'd again, all is temporarily well the bug still appears on a fairly random basis, after an emerge sync... i reemerged portage, no effect. commented out my overlay, no effect it seems to pick on a different package each time (this time it was glibc), though it SEEMS to always be packages i have installed (which makes sense, as the command is "emerge -avuDN world") still a problem= yes, still a problem i can't figure out how to reproduce, though, as i can't even identify a pattern fsck -f, emerge -d sync updated emerge --info: Portage 2.0.51.19 (default-linux/x86, gcc-3.4.3-20050110, glibc-2.3.4.20050125-r1, 2.6.12-rc2 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.12-rc2 i686 Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 2.00GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.6.10 Python: dev-lang/python-2.3.5 [2.3.5 (#1, Apr 13 2005, 16:12:59)] ccache version 2.4 [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.3.5 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.4_p6, 1.9.5, 1.8.5-r3 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r8 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.14 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.8.1-r4 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-Os -march=pentium4 -pipe -fno-omit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/env /usr/kde/3.3/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /var/qmail/alias /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-Os -march=pentium4 -pipe -fno-omit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache distlocks sandbox sfperms" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.us.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X aalib acpi aim alsa apache2 apm arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts cdr crypt cups curl dba debug dvd emboss encode esd fam flac fluxbox font-server foomaticdb fortran ftp gd gd-external gdbm gif gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 icq idea imagemagick imap imlib java jikes jpeg junit libg++ libwww mad mbox mikmod mmx mmx2 motif mozilla mp3 mpeg ncurses nls nptl nptlonly ogg oggvorbis opengl pam pcmcia pdflib perl php pic png posix python qt quicktime readline ruby samba sdl snmp spell sse sse2 ssl svga tcltk tcpd tetex tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev usb vim vorbis xml2 xmms xprint xv xvid zlib" Unset: ASFLAGS, CBUILD, CTARGET, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS --- fdisk -f: smithj ~ # fsck -f /dev/hdc1 fsck 1.37 (21-Mar-2005) e2fsck 1.37 (21-Mar-2005) Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes Pass 2: Checking directory structure Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity Pass 4: Checking reference counts Pass 5: Checking group summary information /dev/hdc1: 24/10040 files (8.3% non-contiguous), 4296/40128 blocks smithj ~ # fsck -f /dev/hdc3 fsck 1.37 (21-Mar-2005) i am syncing with debug now, and will attach when completed (it takes me a long time to rebuild cache due to crappy hardware). i will also do `emerge -dpvuDN world` the next time the issue occurs blar! my school's network isn't allowing syncs at the moment (it is majorly b0rked for some odd reason. windows servers anyone?!?) will update when situation returns to normal Created attachment 56522 [details]
emerge -d sync
Perhaps I should have been more specific. emerge -d sync will just ensure that your portage tree really is correct by using stricter checking of files. The question is can you reproduce the original bug now? emerge -d sync _always_ fails with an IO error. it goes through 3 attempts, and then gives up. i am still having to sync normally, and the problem is still occuring Have you tried deleting the entire portage tree at all? emerge -d sync will just add an option to check md5s to rsync. Deleting the portage tree would be sufficient as well. However, seeing things like the following would generally mean that you are getting fs corruption or your disks are dying. Do you see anything in dmesg to that effect?

i've _never_ seen an emerge fail due to a bad md5 on the ebuild. i scanned dmesg, and didn't notice anything unusual, but i don't really know what to grep for when dealing with harddrive corruption. i use xfs if it matters. i am deleting the portage tree and resyncing now. i will update when/if the problem reoccurs Not the md5 from the digest. Normally, rsync just compares mtimes and sizes of the local files and remote files. Adding --debug will make rsync also compare the md5s of the local and remote files as well. Are you overclocked? Agressive timings in BIOS? Experience random segfaults in other applications? Unusual network card that has a buggy driver perhaps? These errors indicate corruption somewhere. Are you overclocked? no Agressive timings in BIOS? i don't even know what this means, so no Experience random segfaults in other applications? none which aren't due to ~x86 keywords and which other users experience Unusual network card that has a buggy driver perhaps? prism 2.5 pcmcia using kernel drivers. its never borked on my before, but is this "unusual"? possibly related: now rsync fails 3/4 times by freezing on x11-wm/fluxbox/files (_not_ using emerge -d sync) when i wipe the portage tree, before hand, rsync sucessfully finishes. very odd... Maybe this will help. I emerged a bunch of stuff yesterday. This morning, I did the old 'emerge sync && emerge --newuse -uD world' and got the DEPEND/*DEPEND problem. 'revdep-rebuild' found and fixed a problem in sys-fs/cryptsetup. Same error still, but then I noticed a 'no ebuild satisfies virtual/utempter', which was odd since utempter was there and up-to-date. An 'emerge --oneshot utempter' fixed it: '-uD world' worked from there on... @ comment #24 if you are on hardened profile, your problem isn't related to this bugs. I filed bug #92750 wrt virtual/utempter. it automagically stopped happening, so i am going to close. if anyone else has the problem, reopen or email me to do so if you can't |
