After emerge portage update today. The new system kills my Mozilla ang GPG, because there are also updates. The packages were build correctly, and then unmerged. So I have no gpg and mozilla anymore :-( So i downgraded to r4 and hope to get it fixed. bye Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. I use the ~x86 flag
Wow now I have a problem. After emerge the r4 release I don't have any portage :-/ because the buggy r5 kills first r5 and then unmerged r4
use the rescue portage in /usr/portage/sys-apps/portage/files/
Thanks! This helped! The only thing I have to do additionally is to manually remove the "killed" packages from the portage database /var/db, because everytime I emerged with the rescue system for example "portage" at the end emerge said that the protected version (which was deleted in the beginning) is protected and that the new installed version should be cleaned out and I couldn't make an emerge -C
I found the reason for this! In bug 29136 I saw a problem with sort and locales other then C. Of course I make an export LANG=C before I start emerge, but the sub processes get the wrong locale again. I decided to set the locale to C now in global manner and now emerge works :-/ bye!

Martin, could you check that bug #26460 is really a duplicate please? As explained there, I really don't see what it would share with this one. Thanks.
