Description Bryan Hundven 2003-09-25 11:53:36 UTC

COUNTER file is missing for app-arch/rar-3.2.0 in /var/db.
I am using portage-2.0.49-r6 (~x86)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. (guessing) emerge rar; emerge something else
Actual Results:  
localhost root # emerge somepackage
(...)
>>> Auto-cleaning packages ...
!!! COUNTER file is missing for app-arch/rar-3.2.0 in /var/db.
!!! Please run /usr/lib/portage/bin/fix-db.pl
localhost root # /usr/lib/portage/bin/fix-db.pl
Grabbing db contents...
Grabbing mtimes...
fix-db: fatal: insufficient data for sys-apps/sh-utils-2.0.15-r1
 
Remove this package's directory from /var/db/pkg to fix this, then start this
script again. If everything worked correctly, you must remerge
sys-apps/sh-utils-2.0.15-r1 to not mess up any dependencies.

Expected Results:  
emerge'd somepackage
