When trying to upgrade world using the command "emerge -vup world" emerge will crash after a short time, before it figures out what to upgrade. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. run: emerge -vup world Actual Results: bash-2.05b# emerge -vup world These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies |Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 2103, in ? if not mydepgraph.xcreate(myaction): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1034, in xcreate if not self.create(myk): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 747, in create if not self.select_dep("/",mydep["/"],myparent=mp,myuse=myuse): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 937, in select_dep if not self.create(myk,myparent,myuse=binpkguseflags): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 747, in create if not self.select_dep("/",mydep["/"],myparent=mp,myuse=myuse): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 937, in select_dep if not self.create(myk,myparent,myuse=binpkguseflags): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 747, in create if not self.select_dep("/",mydep["/"],myparent=mp,myuse=myuse): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 937, in select_dep if not self.create(myk,myparent,myuse=binpkguseflags): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 747, in create if not self.select_dep("/",mydep["/"],myparent=mp,myuse=myuse): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 937, in select_dep if not self.create(myk,myparent,myuse=binpkguseflags): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 747, in create if not self.select_dep("/",mydep["/"],myparent=mp,myuse=myuse): File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 869, in select_dep myeb=portage.portdb.xmatch("bestmatch-visible",x) File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 4065, in xmatch File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 4076, in xmatch File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 4062, in xmatch File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 4145, in gvisible File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 3822, in aux_get NameError: global name 'ret' is not defined Expected Results: calculated files with updates..... error happens with both sys-apps/portage-2.0.49-r15 and sys-apps/portage-2.0.49-r18 . At least from my experiences
as i just noticed, this error does not happen when i use "emerge -up world", only "emerge -vup world"
