Hi there, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I'm trying to port portage onto an alpha, and I'm stuck. |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
The host currently has debian (woody), plus I upgraded to python2.2 from unstable. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
Steps so far... |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
I extracted portage-2.0.4.tar.bz2 and manually did the steps in the ebuild script. OK. |
| 10 |
I did an "emerge sync". OK. |
| 11 |
I try to "emerge portage" and I get ... |
| 12 |
Calculating dependencies \Traceback (most recent call last): |
| 13 |
File "/usr/lib/portage/bin/emerge", line 1227, in ? |
| 14 |
if not mydepgraph.create(mytype+" "+portage.root+" "+mykey,None,"--onlydeps" not in myopts): |
| 15 |
File "/usr/lib/portage/bin/emerge", line 391, in create |
| 16 |
edepend=portage.db[myroot]["porttree"].dbapi.aux_get(mykey,portage.auxdbkeys) |
| 17 |
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 2601, in aux_get |
| 18 |
mycent=open(mydbkey,"r") |
| 19 |
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/cache/edb/dep/sys-apps/portage-2.0.4' |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
in desperation I copied /var/cache/edb from my gentoo box, but it just shifted the error to |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
/var/cache/edb/sys-libs/zlib-1.1.4 |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Stumped. |
| 26 |
Ideas? What am I doing wrong? |
| 27 |

Cheers. |
