Bug 182571 – Emerge fails from within kuroo.

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Portage Development

[Description brian 2007-06-19 11:54:22 UTC]

All 2.1.3 versions I have tried fail when run within kuroo
with :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 5575, in ?
    retval = emerge_main()
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 5570, in emerge_main
    myopts, myaction, myfiles, spinner)
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 4999, in action_build
    retval = mergetask.merge(
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 2987, in merge
    if not portage.digestcheck([], quiet_config, strict=True):
  File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 2919, in digestcheck
    eout = output.EOutput()
  File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/output.py", line 302, in __init__
    lines, columns = get_term_size()
  File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/output.py", line 261, in get_term_size
    curses.setupterm()
_curses.error: setupterm: could not find terminfo database

Presumably, it shouldn't be seeking a terminal device.
This does not happen <=2.1.2.9


Reproducible: Always

Created attachment 122551 [details, diff]
handle curses.error if it's thrown inside get_term_size()

This should solve it.  If the patch is saved as /tmp/curses.patch then it can be applied as follows:

patch /usr/lib/portage/pym/output.py < /tmp/curses.patch
