Subject: portage bootstrap problem
Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2008 15:25:42 +0200

 1.1

Hey there.

Bootstrapping again, I get the following, when trying to emerge portage.
There is exactly the same version of portage installed already... I see this
somewhere in the middle:

>>> Compiling source in
/opt/gentoo.binary.distribution-interix-5.2/var/tmp/portage/sys-apps/portage
-2.2.00.11125/work/prefix-portage-2.2.00.11125 ...
!!! Error:
PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT='/opt/gentoo.binary.distribution-interix-5.2/opt/gentoo.b
inary.distribution-interix-5.2' is not a directory. Please correct this.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File

    init_legacy_globals()
  File

    db = create_trees(**kwargs)

    config_incrementals=portage.const.INCREMENTALS)

    check_var_directory("PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT", config_root + EPREFIX_LSTRIP)
  File

    raise portage.exception.DirectoryNotFound(var)
portage.exception.DirectoryNotFound:
/opt/gentoo.binary.distribution-interix-5.2/opt/gentoo.binary.distribution-i
nterix-5.2


and after that emerge fails with:

configure: error: bad value  for --with-root-user

looks like a double prefix problem...

Cheers, Markus
