The log output is not too useful here; the output from emerge would be |
9 |
better. However, I too have had this problem on occasion. The solution |

is: |
11 |
|
12 |
# rm -r /var/db/pkg/net-firewall/shorewall-1.4.7c |
13 |

Most likely the files have been unmerged from the system by the time |
15 |
you are getting the error, so this just makes Portage forget it was |
16 |
installed. |
