 |
|
Here's what I did...
"emerge -u pysol"
Told me I needed to remerge python with USE="tcltk"
Did that... then merged python and pysol, looks good.
Pysol works, but emerge is completely broken.
| Code: | root@slimemold root # emerge info
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 13, in ?
import portage
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 18, in ?
ostype=os.uname()[0]
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'uname'

What happened here? And more importantly, how do I fix it? |

I can't tell what your problem is, but you might try using the portage-rescue tarball. Go to /usr/portage/sys-apps/portage/files. In that directory you should find a few different versions of the portage-rescue tarball. Read the README.RESCUE file. It says:
| Quote: | If your version of Portage dies for some reason, try using the
portage-rescue package as follows for Gentoo Linux 1.0+ systems:
SUBSTITUTE A FILE THAT EXISTS FOR THE EXAMPLE VERSION BELOW.
IF AN ARCHITECTURE IS SPECIFIED IN THE FILENAME BE SURE IT IS
THE CORRECT ONE FOR YOUR ARCH.
**************************************************************
NOTE: This WILL overwrite make.conf. Please copy your original
somewhere safe if you wish to keep it for reference.
**************************************************************
If you are not in this directory, you need to change to:
# cd /usr/portage/sys-apps/portage/files/
Run the following to extract the tarball (substitute your arch for 'x86')
# tar xjpUvf portage-rescue-2.0.47-r10-x86.tbz2 -C /
You'll see a warning about garbage at the end of the tarball/bzip2. That's
normal and not a problem. That should get Portage up and running again.
Immediately after that finishes do the following:
# emerge rsync
# emerge portage
Everything should be fine from then on.
Best Regards,
Gentoo Linux

Other than that, I have no idea how to help. |
