dl-list.sh Error

[Omega21]

Hi. I am installing Gentoo on my Computer.
I am using the dl-list.sh script as described in the installation guide. I first used it and it worked for the bootstrap part (there were a few duplicate entries for mirrors, however I dealt with that), but when I tried to use it again for the stage 2 steps, (emerge system) I recieve this error message.

Generating list Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/sbin/ebuild", line 42, in ?
a=portage.doebuild(pargs[0],x,getroot(),tmpsettings,debug,cleanup=cleanup)
File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 2138, in doebuild
mysettings ["dbkey"]=dbkey
File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 1496, in __setitem__
self.configdict ["env'][mykey]=myvalue
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/os.py", line 404, in __setitem__
putenv(key, item)
TypeError: putenv() argument 2 must be string, not None


Please help me, or I will switch to M$ Windoze.

Hi,

Or you could use the simple:
[code]
emerge -pf BLAH 2>&1 | sed 's/ /\n/g' | grep '://' > blah.list[/code]

but that will list all mirrors, but using:

[code]wget -Nci blah.list[/code]

will cause wget to skip duplicates after the first working one.
