any update on this, its not even assigned yet!
Comment 2 James Couzens 2004-09-10 17:39:58 UTC 
ok so I'm blind, its assigned, but I'm still curious about any update.  If I can help at all regarding this please inform me.
Comment 3 Adrian Almenar 2004-09-15 11:25:57 UTC 
you have compiled portage with multilib support ?

It may sound strange but i think its a problem with the sandbox, or to be more exactly with the sandbox with no support for 32-bit binaries.

Try adding multilib and compile portage first, then try again, i solved it this way.
Comment 4 Adrian Almenar 2004-09-15 11:30:32 UTC 
This is exactly the same error on bug #53254.

This one can be closed as a DUPLICATE of that bug.
