Description Peter Waller 2009-06-01 12:53:42 UTC
I'm running portage-2.2_rc33.

I get the following message when I try to do anything with portage (sync, merge a package, etc)

I have attached 2Q-2009 and emerge-info.

Performing Global Updates: /usr/portage/profiles/updates/2Q-2009
(Could take a couple of minutes if you have a lot of binary packages.)

Sorry for the dup, I did search but couldn't find anything on it, I didn't know what I was searching for. Thanks for pointing me at the solution quickly.
