I keep getting the message below when using emerge. I have a fresh install of prefix, so I don't know why it's happening. Portage functions normally, though. The message always appears right after running eautoreconf on an emerge: !!! Section 'gentoo' in repos.conf has name different from repository name 'gentoo_prefix' set inside repository Not all packages produce this message. Try emerging media-libs/gd, for example. The only repos.conf I have in the system was created by portage at: $EPREFIX/usr/share/portage/config/repos.conf Reproducible: Sometimes
can you post the contents of that file? ($EPREFIX/usr/share/portage/config/repos.conf)
Created attachment 357264 [details] repos.conf This is the contents of my repos.conf. It belongs to portage.
@Zac: looks like we nowhere reference "gentoo", is there a default hardwired into portage somewhere?

It's at ${EPREFIX}/usr/share/portage/config/repos.conf
I have the impresion Arfrever fixed this in 2.2.4+
I just tested this and I still see the message on portage 2.2.4. Try emerging media-libs/gd, for example, and watching for the message to appear right after eautoreconf is run. I can provide more information on my system if needed.
I see this happening too
This warning sticks for some reason, but it doesn't seem to harm (yet).
FWIW, commenting out the 'aliases = gentoo' line in ${EPREFIX}/usr/portage/metadata/layout.conf makes these annoying messages go away.
