14 Weird. Because wheelgid shouldn't be there anymore. The latest portage
15 only has
16 __all__ = ["EPREFIX", "SYSCONFDIR", "PORTAGE_BASE", "portageuser",
17 "portagegroup", "rootuser", "rootuid"]
18
19 You're bootstrapping with the latest bootstrap script? I might have to
20 update that one to get around this problem.
21
22 Latest portage is 2.2.00.7245, maybe you can try using that in the
23 bootstrap script to bootstrap portage.
