The SyncManager.sync method is at fault. It needs to return a 4-tuple in all cases.
(In reply to Mario Kicherer from comment #0) > emerge --sync fails every time with the following output: > > # emerge --sync > !!! Repository 'dlang' has sync-type attribute set to unsupported value: > 'laymansync' If you remove the repos.conf section that contains "sync-type = laymansync" then that will suppress the bug.
There's a patch in the following branch: https://github.com/zmedico/portage/tree/bug_567932 You can test it like this: echo '=sys-apps/portage-9999 **' >> /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords portage_LIVE_BRANCH=bug_567932 \ portage_LIVE_REPO=https://github.com/zmedico/portage.git \ emerge -1 =sys-apps/portage-9999 I've posted it for review here: https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage-dev/message/840f33ff47a8facb6b6cc29c539f2b83
This is in the master branch: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/portage.git/commit/?id=32b372bf79633bbfe6c7b1f5bca2f290a32695d4
I removed the offending line in the config and it works. I will test the patch with the next portage version because I can't use this machine for experiments. Thank you very much!
