sometimes, quickpkg makes bad binary packages, which cause `emerge K` to failed. It happens just for some packages, such as portage and gcc (4.1.1). I will happend a sequence of these four commands: # emerge portage # emerge -K portage #lucky # quickpkg portage # emerge -K portage #unlucky
Created attachment 98560 [details] quickpkg bug # emerge portage # emerge -K portage #lucky # quickpkg portage # emerge -K portage #unlucky
It seems like something's wrong with your tar command. Please post the ouput of the following commands: tar --version emerge -pv tar
s939 ~ # tar --version tar (GNU tar) 1.15.1 s939 ~ # emerge -pv tar These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild R ] app-arch/tar-1.15.1-r1 USE="bzip2 nls -build -static" 0 kB Total size of downloads: 0 kB
I've just recompiled tar before posting.
It works fine for me on x86 but produces similar errors on amd64 (both tar-1.15.91 in my case). I'll fiddle with the options and see if I can make it behave.
Created attachment 98565 [details, diff] make quickpkg exclude symlinks to directories This is fixed in svn r4570. This problem was a side effect from the fix for bug #146564.
thank you. tested. now it works. :)
This has been released in 2.1.2_pre2-r2.
This is more properly fixed in the new python version of quickpkg (bug 164655).
