[gentoo-user] emerge python-updater -> raise InvalidAtom(self)

[Al]

Hello,

after emerging portage emerging python-updater brock with this

[...]
  File "/home/prefix/gentoo/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage/dep/__init__.py",
line 1006, in __init__
    raise InvalidAtom(self)
portage.exception.InvalidAtom: media-tv/vdrplugin-rebuild::Cygwin overlay

I get the same error whenever I call emerge.


I found this: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-840263-start-0.html

However the case is different. There is no directory
"var/db/pkg/media-tv/..." that I could remove and I never installed
that.

It's also a different line and function that rises the error: 647 vs. 1006.

How can I clean this up?

Thanks

Al
