Trying to run the new python based revdep-rebuild, I always get this: root@matica portage # revdep-rebuild * This is the new python coded version * Please report any bugs found using it. * The original revdep-rebuild script is installed as revdep-rebuild.sh * Please file bugs at: https://bugs.gentoo.org/ * Collecting system binaries and libraries Could not save cache: write() argument 1 must be unicode, not str To me this looks like the typical example of trying to run a python2 script under python3. I have both python2.7 and python3.4 installed, but the default (via eselect) is python2.7. Unfortunately I don't understand the gentoo python infra (python-exec etc.) well enough yet to go deeper. But if you tell me how to dig out relevant details I surely will. Reproducible: Always
Hey behemothchess, I can not reproduce your problem, please give more information about your system ``` sudo revdep-rebuild * This is the new python coded version * Please report any bugs found using it. * The original revdep-rebuild script is installed as revdep-rebuild.sh * Please file bugs at: https://bugs.gentoo.org/ * Checking dynamic linking consistency ```
This bug is fixed in gentoolkit-0.3.3 You can ignore the error if you don't want to upgrade to an unstable version. It doesn't impact the ability of revdep-rebuild to find problems. It only impacts the ability to write the cache for speeding up future runs of the tool. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 589130 ***
