Hi, my first post here. Seem to be having a problem unmerging nvidia-glx.
Code: |
>>> Unmerging media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.5336-r2...
No package files given... Grabbing a set.
QA Notice: ECLASS 'eutils' inherited illegally in media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.5336-r2
QA Notice: ECLASS 'multilib' inherited illegally in media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.5336-r2
/usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild.sh: /var/db/pkg/media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.5336-r2/nvidia-glx-1.0.5336-r2.ebuild: line 98: unexpected EOF while looking for matching ``'
/usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild.sh: /var/db/pkg/media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.5336-r2/nvidia-glx-1.0.5336-r2.ebuild: line 131: syntax error: unexpected end of file
!!! ERROR: media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.5336-r2 failed.

I did a search for similar problems, but the solutions seemed to be specific to other packages.
Any help resolving this, is appreciated.
Thanks. |

What command did you use to unemerge? Try running emerge -C nvidia-glx. |

Inspect the file /var/db/pkg/media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.5336-r2/nvidia-glx-1.0.5336-r2.ebuild with a text editor and try to find and fix the syntax error. Watch out for strange control characters in this file. |
