I have had various problems trying to emerge things in the last few weeks and have tried various combinations including overwriting the portage tree with:

Code:
portage-20070416.tar.bz2


But even after this I still get the following error:


Code:
Calculating dependencies
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 5266, in ?
    retval = emerge_main()
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 5261, in emerge_main
    myopts, myaction, myfiles, spinner)
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 4585, in action_build
    mydepgraph = depgraph(settings, trees, myopts, myparams, spinner)
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 976, in __init__
    trees[myroot]["porttree"].dbapi)
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 739, in __init__
    metadata = dict(izip(mykeys, real_dbapi.aux_get(cpv, mykeys)))
  File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 5140, in aux_get
    mydata.update(izip(aux_keys, self._aux_get(mycpv, aux_keys)))
AttributeError: keys



Can anyone shed any further light on this problem as I am unable to update my system at present.

Installing emerge again should fix this, I believe.
