Description therion 2002-03-31 19:23:52 UTC
When you try to unmerge a package with "emerge unmerge <packagename" it no 
longer works, but it does work if you do "emerge unmerge 
=sys-apps/xfsdump-20020124" for example. before you didnt have to provide 
the catagory at all. here is the output of just emerge unmege packagename



bash-2.05a# emerge unmerge python-2.2-r5
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 972, in ?
    mymatches=localtree.dep_match(x)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 2058, in dep_match
    if not self.hasnode(mypkgdep):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 1632, in hasnode
    myreskey=self.resolve_key(mykey)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 1581, in 
resolve_key
    self.load(mykey)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 2080, in load
    mycat,mypkg=string.split(mykey,"/")
ValueError: unpack list of wrong size
