Created attachment 38544 [details] /var/log/genkernel.log And here is the complete log ...
Try etc-update; if it still fails attach your genkernel.conf and `ls /usr/share/genkernel/pkg` please.
Ooops, now I'm looking really stupid the etc-update fixed it went to fast after last emerge rsync ... sorry.
