Description Elias Probst 2010-09-09 21:19:37 UTC 
When defining a package to exclude during an update and there's a portage update to be done, the emerge process fails when resuming after portage has been updated.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -avuDN @world --exclude mysql

Actual Results:  
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild     U ] sys-apps/portage-2.2_rc78 [2.2_rc77] USE="-build -doc -epydoc -python3 (-selinux)" LINGUAS="-pl" 140 kB
*** Portage will stop merging at this point and reload itself,
    then resume the merge.
[ebuild   R   ] dev-libs/glib-2.24.1-r1  USE="fam -debug -doc (-selinux) -xattr (-hardened%)" 5,208 kB
[ebuild     U ] dev-java/icedtea6-bin-1.9 [1.8.1-r1] USE="X alsa nsplugin -doc -examples -source" 34,950 kB

Total: 4 packages (3 upgrades, 1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 41,272 kB

Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No]

Usage: emerge [options]

emerge: error: Invalid Atom(s) in --exclude parameter: '['mysql']' (only package names and slot atoms (with widlcards) allowed)

Expected Results:  
Portage just resumes and continues the update as usual.

There is also an typo in the error message:

Currently:
emerge: error: Invalid Atom(s) in --exclude parameter: '['mysql']' (only package names and slot atoms (with widlcards) allowed)

Corrected:
emerge: error: Invalid Atom(s) in --exclude parameter: '['mysql']' (only package names and slot atoms (with wildcards) allowed)
Comment 2 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2010-09-10 20:30:57 UTC 
This is fixed in 2.1.9.3 and 2.2_rc79.
