OK, so I had another crash this morning after upgrading portage from |
| 17 |
2.1_pre7-r5 to 2.1_pre9-r5 and trying to reload(portage). The crash was |
| 18 |
repeatable for the current porthole session. Again, quiting porthole |
| 19 |
and restarting, it works properly, and reload(portage) works without |
| 20 |
error. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
This time the error was: (brief snipit of pycrash output) |

I believe what is happening is that when porthole executes the |
| 35 |
reload(portage) that only portage is being reloaded and not any/all of |
| 36 |
it's /pym imports. Could that be the cause? If the 'LazyItemsDict' was |
| 37 |
something changed in one of the portage external modules then that would |
| 38 |
confirm what I suspect. |

If you still think I need to file a bug, I will. |
