Created attachment 126717 [details, diff]
fix writemsg args

If you save this patch as /tmp/writemsg.patch then you can apply it like this:

patch /usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py < /tmp/writemsg.patch

This bug has existed in the 2.1.3 branch for some time but nobody noticed it.  With the patch we'll be able to see what other error is triggering it (maybe PermissionDenied).

[Comment 2 Zac Medico 2007-08-02 18:57:59 UTC]

This has been released in 2.1.3.2. I'll leave this bug open since some others might hit this in 2.1.2.11 (probably won't be too many though).

Thanks.

The error was trigged by some bad files in my portage overlay:

!!! Error: aux_get('x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.14.13-r5', ['KEYWORDS', 'EAPI', 'SLOT'])
!!! /usr/local/portage/x11-drivers/ati-drivers/files/digest-ati-drivers-8.16.20-r1
!!! Error: aux_get('x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.14.13-r3', ['KEYWORDS', 'EAPI', 'SLOT'])
!!! /usr/local/portage/x11-drivers/ati-drivers/files/digest-ati-drivers-8.16.20-r1

I've cleaned up in there.

[Comment 4 Zac Medico 2007-08-24 18:49:26 UTC]

This has been released in 2.1.2.12.
