Bug 191018 – emerging files in /usr/share gets stuck following the bootstrap-macos instructions

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo/Alt

[Description Maurice Volaski 2007-09-02 00:25:01 UTC]

I tried following the instructions here, http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/gentoo-alt/prefix/bootstrap-macos.xml to install portage on OS X and works find until I get to emerge --oneshot sed

Emerge complains with

/Users/maurice/Gentoo/usr/lib/portage/bin/ecompressdir: line 13: shopt: extdebug: invalid shell option name
/Users/maurice/Gentoo/usr/lib/portage/bin/ecompress: line 13: shopt: extdebug: invalid shell option name

this is an interesting one.  Can you post the $Id: ... line of the bootstrap-prefix.sh file?

[Comment 2 Maurice Volaski 2007-09-03 06:23:02 UTC]

I don't see an $ld line in this script, but the problem simply appears to be that the script posted at http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/gentoo-alt/prefix/bootstrap-macos.xml is out of date. The script did install a newer version of itself in Gentoo/usr/portage/scripts. I reran everything with that script and it works fine. 

I think you just need to keep that web page up-to-date with the latest bootscript script.

[Comment 3 Fabian Groffen 2007-09-03 07:16:13 UTC]

If you click the download link, you get the latest version of the script.  However, that script won't be updated if you downloaded it, of course.

[Comment 4 Maurice Volaski 2007-09-03 17:51:15 UTC]

That seems to mean I have it backwards. The latest script, which is posted, is the one that isn't working. The earlier one in portage, which has PV="20070806", is.

Ok, so you basically say our latest tree snapshot is faulty/corrupt.

@pipping: have you (re-)bootstrapped your system recently using the latest bootstrap script (and hence the latest tree snapshot)?

My last bootstrap dates back to august 25th. Back then it worked.

[Comment 7 Maurice Volaski 2007-09-05 22:04:23 UTC]

I'm not sure what to say other than the time I tried it with the file that was on the website, it failed with this odd complaint and then when I tried it again with the earlier one from the prefixed tree, it worked. It just could have been odd environmental quirkiness.

NEEDINFO?

[Comment 9 Fabian Groffen 2007-10-08 18:48:18 UTC]

probably something went wrong the first time.
