Description Ryan Grange 2006-06-13 10:38:02 UTC

I can't emerge sync, emerge portage, or even emerge --info.  Attempted fix at http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/portage/doc/manually-fixing-portage.xml with no change.  All things emerge result in the following.

server123 ~ # emerge portage
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 10, in ?
    import portage
  File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 7187, in ?
    settings=config(config_profile_path=PROFILE_PATH,config_incrementals=portage_const.INCREMENTALS)
  File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 946, in __init__
    mypath = os.path.normpath(mypath+"///"+grabfile(mypath+"/parent")[0])
IndexError: list index out of range

Python 2.4.2 is installed version if that matters.
