emerge xfree ttmkfdir-3.0.9 error

[jlade]

Hi All,

Have a problem when emerging xfree I get the following error, right at the start

waiting for ttmkfdir.o.lock to be removed

This repeats and repeats.

Now I searched through tmp and did a find from the / but couldn't find it so figuring a reboot might help. But all to no avail.

Any ideas.

Just prior to this I had three consoles open
on one
1# emerge -f xfree
2# emerge -f kde
3# emerge xfree

I don't know if this had anything to do with it. But I wanted to speed up the whole process by having the sources already available to keep my PC active.

I have the same problem when I try to emerge XFree.
I've searched the forums for a solution, but I haven't found one that works for me.
I'm now searching again to see if I've missed some posts.
