I've been having a strange problem with portage-2.1_pre6-r3: just when it should begin the qmerge phase it exits without errors, apart from an exit status of 1. If I then run ebuild to actually perform the qmerge phase all files are copied to their locations without warnings or errors. As an example: # emerge --oneshot portage Calculating dependencies ... done! >>> Emerging (1 of 1) sys-apps/portage-2.1_pre6-r3 to / [...] >>> Completed installing portage-2.1_pre6-r3 into /var/tmp/portage/portage-2.1_pre6-r3/image/ # echo $? 1 # ebuild /usr/portage/sys-apps/portage/portage-2.1_pre6-r3.ebuild qmerge [...] >>> Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache... >>> sys-apps/portage-2.1_pre6-r3 merged. If you think I should add the omitted output just ask, but there's nothing different from a successful emerge. Downgrading to portage-2.1_pre5-r4 solves this problem.
