Hello! I found broken sys-apps/portage-2.1.2_pre3-r6 (at least on ~amd64). After an upgrade to this version the portage system went crazy. First of all, it barked that it can't see gcc. Second, it said plenty of ebuild files are broken. Third - it couldn't --sync again.
I downloaded binary sys-apps/portage-2.1.2_pre3-r5 from my home computer, overwritten faulty one with "tar -xj" and it started working again. Then masked sys-apps/portage-2.1.2_pre3-r6 and re-emerged portage. Now everything is fine. I'll file a bug later this day, stating config and exact error messages. -- Pawel Kraszewski www.kraszewscy.net -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
