Bug 63410 – emerge sync broken

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 63400
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description marc baier 2004-09-09 04:51:11 UTC]

after emerge sync it gives me this:

!!! 'str' object has no attribute 'insert'
!!! 'rm -Rf /usr/portage/profiles; emerge sync' may fix this. If it does
!!! not then please report this to bugs.gentoo.org and, if possible, a dev
!!! on #gentoo (irc.freenode.org)

so i removed my profile dir, synced again but the same problem occurs. i have a gateway with own rsync mirror running selinux (x86), and my main box is amd64. 

i cannot do anything, emerge doesn't work anymore.

I need your profiles and the 'emerge -d' output, if it produces anything.

Respond in bug 63400.

ls -l /etc/make.profile

ok, emerge -d produces the same error.

slurm root # ls -l /etc/make.conf
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 14311 Sep  1 19:13 /etc/make.conf

portage version is 2.0.50-r10

anything else u need/ i can do?

ok :)

after deleting my profile dir emerge generates some output again.
