Description Brian Bisaillon 2004-11-26 06:08:50 UTC
After updating the portage cache with emerge sync I get an error and I can't continue past that point. I tried following the instructions described in "Actual Results" and it didn't fix the problem. I tried with both stage1-x86-selinux-pie-ssp-2004.2 and stage2-x86-selinux-pie-ssp-2004.2.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Finish code listings 1 through 5.
2. Not able to get past code listing 6.
Actual Results:  
!!! '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)

Expected Results:  
I should have been able to continue with emerge --fetchonly system or emerge
system but I can't until this is fixed.

I tried this on a Dual CPU Pentium II system at work with completely different
hardware and I even tried it on my removable USB drive at home. This is not a
hardware issue. Programs I have running are irrelevant since I have different
programs running on the computers listed above.

The new selinux stages available in the /experimental/x86/hardened/stages directory on the mirrors has portage 2.0.51, which fixes this bug.
